Puzzle - Bear Family Dress-Up
A lovely wooden puzzle that helps your child develop fine motor skills while dressing the bear family in different outfits. Hand-eye coordination is also supported as each piece fits neatly into a matching recessed space on the puzzle board.
As the bears are different sizes, your child also gets to explore size and shape while finding the right clothes for each family member.
The bears' faces can be swapped too, giving your child a fun introduction to recognising facial expressions. It's a great opportunity to make up little stories about why a bear looks happy, surprised, or sad, or to talk about when your child last felt the same way and what happened.
This bear family puzzle is the perfect starting point for all kinds of imaginative stories. What do the bears wear in winter? What do they put on for bedtime? And what might a little bear look like after eating a whole jar of honey?
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

Doing puzzles is a good way to get better at understanding how separate parts form a whole and envisioning where each part belongs in the big picture.
Being able to register something visually (with our eyes) and envision a whole (and what parts are missing) is important when learning math and geometry as well as understanding how sentences, sums, or a piece of knitting, among other things, consist of patterns and sequences.
If the puzzle has a special picture, such as anatomy, jungle animals, or flags of the world, you can expand your child's vocabulary by talking about it while doing the puzzle.
The activity is great for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:
- Gives your child's fine motor skills a wonderful workout.
- Perfect for group role play, where little ones learn about finding their own place in the game and not always being in charge.
- Boosts your child's development and understanding of language.
