Read the verdict and alternativesOur take
Four small dinosaur projects in one storage box
Four separate twelve-piece wooden puzzles let the child finish one picture without committing to a large floor scene. The divided box helps sort them, and its lid supplies a work surface. That makes the format useful away from home, provided the lid and loose pieces are secured for the journey.
- Best fit
- Short individual projects and easier packing.
- Before buying
- Small loose pieces still need adult help to keep track of. Check that the lid is secured before packing it.

A closer look at the trade-offs
The trade-off
The 48-piece dinosaur floor puzzle is better for spreading out together. Ravensburger's two 150-piece dinosaur puzzles raise the jigsaw challenge. Choose this box for short individual projects and easier packing.
A suggested first play session
Choose one compartment and complete its twelve-piece picture.
