Learning Resources Magnetic U.S. Map Puzzle - 44pc

Most of the pieces wouldn’t lay flat so they wouldn’t stick to the fridge. I loved this idea, but was really disappointed that this set was useless. We had to return it.

Missing South Dakota, son was disappointed when he finally got to the end.

Good pre school educated toy

The first one we got came with a ton of the states all bent and rounded so they would not stay on the fridge. I reached out to customer service and they sent a new one. Pieces were perfect in that one so the first may have been a fluke. 4 year old loves this puzzle and is getting really good at learning the states. I would recommend this

Do not buy. Puzzle pieces do not go together well. Magnets are not strong enough to stick on the metal refrigerator. Some of the puzzle pieces were bent in the box. Terrible quality.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this set but better for older kids (5-12) to learn.

Really great idea badly executed. The magnets don’t stick on surfaces like they should such as my child’s whiteboard so we had to use the dishwasher and we have a double door refrigerator that the map is too large for. Also the quality of each piece isn’t what i thought it’d be. Very paper like surface that i can see will easily take shape if bent or pressed in place too hard as sometimes children will do. Lastly, they do not slide with ease on surfaces (my home’s surfaces at least). I had better hopes for this as we own alot of Learning Resources items.

it's made of like foam material with magnetics on the back.. the pieces fit nicely together

I grew up in Wheeling, WV which is located in the Northern panhandle of WV. I am searching for a puzzle of the United States that is accurate and disappointed to discover that the company called Learning Resources does not recognized where I grew up. I've given 2 stars vs 1 because it appears that many of the pieces are shaped properly.

Came missing Tennessee :(

Have not used yet but it looks like a perfect size and concept.

This is a really cool magnetic map to help teach states and capitals.

This is an awesome map! The pieces are thick foam/magnet/paper overlay, have a strong enough magnetic force to hold onto a vertical board (through cardstock paper too), and are safe enough size wise for my 2yr old to play with (not particularly worried about a choking hazard). It comes with a "puzzle piece map" of the US so kids can put the states in the correct location, which is super cool for kids learning to put puzzles together. My 4 and 2yr old LOVE putting this together and finding all the states that we have family living in. Definitely recommend for kids who are learning their states and like puzzles- 5 stars!

I purchased this for my 3 year old granddaughter and honestly wanted to put it together myself also! We love it as a family! It wouldn't fit in my refrigerator and it didn't work well wth the paper outline laying on table so I got creative!!! I purchased a magnetic dry erase board the same size and used modge podge (glue) and glued the outline to the board and smoothed out all the wrinkles and bubbles!! And let me tell ya we not only have a beautiful puzzle but with the bright colors looks like a work of art!! It hangs in my granddaughter's playroom and is easily removed to put together anytime!! Not stashed away in a box and forgotten about! I love that the outline is there and capitals of all the states readily to learn!! Everyone in our house loves this puzzle and great grandparents even liked it when they visited!! So great for ages 3-76!!! Learning Resources never ceases to amaze me with the great products!! I absolutely love shopping for things that help her learn all while she feels she is just playing!! Definitely worth the money and such sturdy quality!

My kids love this. They have learned so much, all the while having fun.

I loved the concept of magnetic maps and had been looking at them for a long time. Finally I bought it as a gift for my friend's daughter. Hope she loved it. U even need to make world maps in magnetic as kids love to play with them. They have fun arranging them on the refrigerator.

Great for all ages from 5,39, to 73!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This magnetic puzzle is available for my students during all free times, and they really crowd around it to put the pieces together. The pieces are colorful and durable. The kids have contests to see how many pieces they can put together in certain time frames. They are really starting to recognize the states by their shapes and their locations in the U.S. A. This product is an excellent addition to our classroom activities. The kids collaborate and have so much fun!

My son learned so much about the states doing this puzzle. We liked the map printout included that lists the capitals of each state but not the state name, this is helping him to learn the capitals. We used a metal cookie sheet for the magnetic puzzle as we did this a many times on the couch instead of in front of the fridge, LOL, it worked great. He is learning to read so I loved the simple artwork and bold clear letters as he sounded out state names, it wasn't "too busy" as I've found other maps to be.
