My son loves animals, especially when they are in puzzle form. To see him get excited when he is done and mimic the sound the animal makes is really fun. We’ve purchased puzzles in the past that have been poor quality. After usage, the paint comes off and some puzzles have even had splinters. I would much rather buy something handmade that is safe for children.

That is when I stumbled upon this elephant puzzle from usnavyretiredvet. It is especially made for children using real wood. It also has a non-toxic finish as well as sanded edges. This seller also has a great selection of puzzles to choose from. I wonder what my son's reaction will be seeing the baby elephant as a puzzle piece!

Check out other animal themed puzzles below. Also be aware if there are small pieces, depending on the age of your child. Read the description from the seller carefully. Have fun!
