Educational and fun
This is a great educational puzzle. Of course, many of the Eastern states are combined. It also says the name of the state regardless if it is correct. But all in all, it's a clever puzzle and the sound adds the fun.

Fun and educational
I have a 7 year old and twin 4 year olds. I bought it for the 7 year old to work on geography over the summer. All three children love puzzles and love that this puzzle talks. They all use it and it will make learning the US states and capital much easier and more fun. Be careful if you leave it in the family room without the pieces because the lights from the room and TV activate the speaker and the puzzles talks to you all evening long. Keep the puzzle pieces in the puzzle or the puzzle in the closet.

Poorly cut pieces
This puzzle was said to be an awesome educational item, but after ordering it, I found the puzzle pieces were not cut exactly how the state was leaving some of the boarder on another piece. Then 1/2 the puzzle failed to say the name of the state and the capital. It was over priced and poorly designed.

One great toy!!!
I bought this map and the world puzzle for the boys christmas this past year and he just loves it!!!! He has become a master of the states and their capitals at the age of 5! This world puzzle is a bit harder but he's begining to understand just how big our state is and how it fits into the big picture of our world. I have shown him where his Auntie lives in Australia and the country in Africa where is father's family lives. We're working on my friend in Wales now. Too bad I don't know anyone South America!! I can't say enough amazing and great things about what Doug and Melissa's toys do for my (or anyone's) child. No matter the age, buy this for your son, daughter, grandchild.....heck buy it for a friends kid!

Wonderful educational toy
I bought this toy for my grandson who just turned 2,who is already interested in maps and can identify a few states. We have several of the Melissa and Doug toys and puzzles that have the sound feature. This is an excellent toy and I would recommend it, but some of the pieces are very small. My daughter is sure to supervise my grandson when he plays with this toy, so the pieces don't get lost. The only drawback to this toy is that the sound will activate even if the incorrect state is placed on the board in the wrong area. However, as I said we have loved ALL the Melissa and Doug toys we've bought, feel they are a good value, and like that the sound feature a lot. It does make the toy more interaction for youngsters. Yes, I recommend this toy, as long as it is used with supervision for the small pieces as well as heling the child learn where to place the pieces.
