All aboard the bright, shiny red Big Bus, full of interesting passengers. This large, shaped floor puzzle has just 15 big, chunky pieces, making it an ideal puzzle for very young children with little fingers. Children will love the bold colours and detailed illustration, and will find plenty to talk about. An activity guide on the box will suggest several ways to increase the play value of the puzzle; you can start by asking your child to find a piece with a number on, a piece with an animal on, or a piece showing a baby. Once the puzzle is complete, there are lots of things to promote conversation; how many female passengers are there? What could the girl outside the bus have in her case? What could the driver be saying to the elderly lady? Children will love to talk about the different characters on the bus and what they are doing. The puzzle is particularly suitable for children aged from 2 to 5, and as well as helping their talking skills, it will help with hand-eye co-ordination.
