Overall, it’s a Great concept, but it is very sensitive. I bought for my 3y/o. We love practicing # w/ it, but even w/ a light shadow # start playing . 6 & 9 are the same color & just a tiny bit of a different size, I wish they could have been a different color to identify them quicker . It has different objects on the bottom of the # like stars, frogs pennies fishes. Im not a fan that it repeats the # along with the picture ( example: 8 eagles so when your shadow hits the board all you hear is eight Eagle seven butterflies nine three flowers ) . Board is thick and of good quality. # do not have a knob which would have been great but overall good product just price wasn’t a match .
Falls short of expectations

I liked that this is a wooden puzzle and when the piece is placed it will say the number aloud. However, if you put the wrong puzzle piece on, it still says the number it's supposed to be. For example, if I put the 17 puzzle piece over the 12 spot, the puzzle says outloud "12 mice". You don't even have to put a puzzle piece over it for the sound! If you put your hand over it it then plays the sound. Then you have the puzzle yelling all these different numbers when your kid is just trying to put the pieces in the correct spots. Was hoping this would help my child more, but it seems to just be confusing her. Will end up using it with the sound turned off. So it's just a simple wooden puzzle, which is fine. But not why I purchased this exact puzzle.
What a waste!!!

I received a puzzle damaged in shipping. I contacted customer service through the app and they sent out a replacement that day. My Kids love the puzzle. They have quite a few sound puzzles. This one (and the ABC one) are a little more sensitive to light/shadows then the others, which causes the pieces to do the sound without the piece getting removed or inserted. o.Overall we still love it.
Love this

Wish I had gotten this sooner for my daughter who is now 5. My 2 year old enjoys playing with it a lot too and naming the objects under the numbers. Good way for kids to learn IDing numbers. Quality seems slightly lacking some of the numbers are separating but I would have still bought it despite this.

One of the numbers was damaged upon arrival so I am a little disappointed in that but it's a great puzzle and I'm hoping it will help my daughter to learn numbers 11-20 better.

Great purchase. Love that even if you don't have the right piece or any piece it still says the letter sound if you touch the sensor! The only drawback and challenge is how to not lose the pieces with a two year old boy!

Hard to find Spanish or other languages for basic learning material like numbers or letters or shapes. This was the perfect find for me.

My grandson like this the letters are big enough for him to grasp. I like that it speaks to him as he put the letter in.
wish I would have read the reviews before I purchased

But, I thought, what could be wrong and purchased. Our goal was that the puzzle would speak the letter when it was placed in the correct spot however, if my son's hand hovers over another spot it says that letter while other letters do not work at all. I imagined cause and effect, making the right choice and finding the correct letter and then getting the result of hearing it instead, you hear other letters their hand pases over and then you might not even hear the correct letter when it is put in place. I would have much rather spent less on an alphabet (and number too! - same) puzzle that didn't have the sound

My 18 month old knows her 1-14 perfectly... still confuse with why 15 is 15 and not 5... Good way to teach toddlers numbers and counting. The only complain is its sensitive sensors. Sometimes it will describe the number next to the slot where my daughter puts the number.

My wife is a school teacher for 5K kids on the autism spectrum. She had this puzzle and she lost the number 17. She wanted me to cut one out of wood and paint it. I was pleased to find the website on the back of the puzzle. The puzzle was delivered quickly and when I gave it to her she was as excited as a 5 year old on Christmas morning.
Highly Recommend

My son loves the noises this puzzle makes and I really appreciate that it's made out of wood so my dog can't chew it up!
Indeed I would rebuy this item. Have already suggested it.

For a child in Kindergarten, this item is necessary. Very appropriate for 5-6 yr. olds beginning the process of understanding number. It is just the for perfect tool for this age group. Every child this age should have one or have access to one.
Great for challenged adults too!

Back to the basics! Our mentally challenged and partially blind clients really enjoy hearing the numbers being said aloud along with seeing and feeling the shapes. Very helpful.

I had purchased the ABC sound puzzle and followed with the numbers sound puzzle. My 2-year-old granddaughter learned her ABCs with both recognition and sound in no time! We are now working on numbers. Wonderful educational tools! I would recommend purchasing these items for age-appropriate children.
little disappointed

granddaughter enjoys this puzzle all so.. I was a little disappointed with the puzzle. because what ever number is put on the spot it says the number. if I put the 3 in the 15 space it calls it a 15. the puzzle rewards the child to be right, were ever they put the puzzle piece down if in the right place or not..
