Troubleshooting
Puzzle pieces do not fit together.
Ensure you are matching the correct letter piece with its corresponding picture piece. The design only allows the correct pairing to connect.
Child is having difficulty identifying the correct matches.
Sit with the child and guide them through a few examples. Start with letters and pictures the child is already familiar with. Provide positive reinforcement for correct matches.
Pieces seem too small for very young children.
Supervise closely. For children still mouthing objects, ensure they are not left unattended with the puzzle pieces. Consider using only a subset of the puzzles initially.
