Puzzle with Sounds - Zoo Animals
If your child loves going to the zoo and watching all the exciting animals, this beautiful wooden puzzle with animal sounds is a must-have. The puzzle pieces are shaped like 8 familiar zoo favourites. When you put a piece in its correct place, you'll hear the sound of the animal.Â
Each painted piece is beautifully designed with lovely, realistic details. The puzzle is made of wood and is of excellent quality.
9 pieces in total (8 puzzle pieces and 1 puzzle board). Note: The puzzle has light-activated sensors. This means that if a piece is not in place and the lighting changes (a lamp is turned off, the sun sets, etc.), the sound will be triggered.
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

Suitable for children aged 2 yrs. to 4 yrs.Doing puzzles develops your child's patience and fine motor skills. Besides, putting the pieces in place is a good way to get better at understanding how the pieces fit together to form a whole and figuring out where each piece belongs in the big picture.
The ability to perceive something visually and envision a whole (and what parts are missing) is an important skill when learning math and geometry as well as understanding how sentences, sums, or a piece of knitting, among other things, are made up of sequences and patterns.
If the puzzle has a special theme, 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 supports skill development and is wonderful for your child's well-being:
- Helps your child strengthen fine motor skills.
- This type of play stimulates your child's hearing and invites them to listen attentively.
- Strengthens hand-eye coordination, a skill we rely on for instance when we catch, throw, or kick a ball that comes flying at us in the playground, when we cut in a straight line line with scissors, or when we want to pour a glass of water without missing.
