When you are selecting your little one’s first puzzle you want to ensure the pieces are large enough not to be a chocking hazard. The large pieces will also help them be able to pick up and place the pieces while still working their fine motor skills. Anything with a knob on the top is a great starting point. Once they get the hang of that move on the the others!
