Djeco Leon the Dragon Giant Puzzle
(Djeco $18.99)
They're not kidding when they call this a puzzle Giant! Assembled, Leon the Dragon is over 54” long and a real challenge. We suggest working on the floor or a long picnic table where it will not be disturbed. The painterly patterns make this anything but easy, although there are only 58 big pieces. That said, it’s a handsome work of art that has no frame. It comes with a miniature version that will be a great help, especially since the color patterns on the pieces look remarkably puzzling! Well, that’s what a puzzle should be—puzzling and full of trial and error. It has the look of an Eric Carle tissue paper collage, but there’s nothing pre-school-ish about this! It’s marked 5 and up, but we suggest this is more like a choice for 7s, 8s, and even 9s that 5s can possible help with assembling.
