Description
This coral reef floor puzzle is a bright, busy underwater scene in 24 large card pieces, made to be laid out flat and pieced together on the floor. Once finished it measures 61cm long and 46cm wide, a generous size that gives plenty of room to spread out and work together. The scene is full of life. A pink octopus curls over a rock at the centre, a grey shark glides along the top, and shoals of small fish dart through turquoise water. Look closer and there are clownfish, striped angelfish, a little seahorse, starfish, a red crab and a banded sea snake winding through yellow and orange coral.
Because the finished scene is so large, it suits a clear stretch of floor in a playroom, bedroom or living room, or a big kitchen table on a rainy afternoon. The pieces are big enough to handle easily, and the many creatures give plenty to spot and talk about while it comes together: who can find the crab, or count the yellow fish? It works well as a shared activity, with room around the edges for more than one pair of hands.
Each piece is cut from card 0.3cm thick, and the whole puzzle weighs 0.55KG, so it is light enough to carry from room to room. It comes in a box with a rope handle that doubles as tidy storage, so every piece can go straight back in when play is over. To keep it looking its best, store it somewhere dry, keep the pieces away from spills, and wipe any marks gently with a barely damp cloth, letting them dry fully. We think it makes a cheerful gift, and it is well worth clearing a good patch of floor before the first go.
