 wonderful geography puzzle Mar 10, 2008
By K. Mueller
We later bought all of the Geopuzzles because they are so great, but Asia was our first. These puzzles are tough and bright and big, and are great at teaching geography. I shopped around and I think these are the best. Our six year old, two year old, as well as my husband enjoy them a lot.

Fun and educational Dec 14, 2007
By JEK teacher
Although this product is aimed at kids, it's a great tool for adults too. There's something about having the shape of a country in your fingers and seeing how it fits among its neighbors to help you remember just where in the world it is. We've got most of these puzzles -- the one of Africa is especially helpful since many of these nations have changed names and we don't spend a lot of time in school on African history and geography.

Love these puzzles Jan 09, 2010
By H. Rivers
I ended up with one of each puzzle for my 7 and 10 year old sons. Both have really enjoyed learning the names of all these countries and putting everything together. It's wonderful to hear them as they go through Europe, Africa, Asia... in addition to learning the names of the countries, they are also picking up the oceans and seas, which are also marked. I think it's a tremendous way to learn geographic information. I've also learned some things that I never knew.
One reviewer said that the pieces don't stay together - it is true that since they are not "puzzle shaped" they don't have as many interlocking elements as other puzzle pieces, but both of my children were able to work around that.
A minor drawback is that sometimes that are large areas of ocean in the puzzles and it can be hard to figure out where those go.
Finally, some of the pieces can be very small so be sure you don't lose them.
I've been recommending this to all our friends - it's a great learning tool.

Great puzzle! Feb 21, 2009
By Midwest Mom
I bought this puzzle and several others in the same series to help teach my daughter geography. She's only 2 and she loves putting them together as a family. She's helped put them together so many times now, she knows where most of the countries go and can say the names of many of them. My only complaint is that they are cardboard instead of wooden like her puzzle of the U.S., but I haven't been able to find any companies that make wooden puzzles of continents other than North America. Great educational tool!

Fun With Learning! Oct 04, 2009
By emily
"FunSchoolingAtHome"
We use these puzzles in our homeschool geography study. What a fun way to become familiar with continents and countries. Each month we study a different continent. In addition to maps, colors, books and all that goes with it, these puzzles add some great fun to our class. The kids would put it together each day and race to see if they could beat their time from the day before. The loved it! As they get more familiar with the countries and where they go, the time gets faster! The children asked us to buy them all because they liked them so much!!
