The Viga My Friend the Horse wooden puzzle invites toddlers to discover shapes and colours by putting together a cheerful, colourful horse.

This wooden puzzle for toddlers is made for little hands. Thick pieces with rounded edges are easy to grip and safe, and the bright, happy colours grab attention straight away. The puzzle helps toddlers enjoy their first independent successes and trains fine motor skills. It is made of quality, natural, durable wood. The compact size makes it good at home and on the go. Size about 16 × 18 × 2 cm.

What your child develops

• Hand-eye coordination. Each piece goes in the right place.

How to play
