“Dissect” a frog without dissecting a frog! Not your average
puzzle… this awesome bullfrog is GIANT (44” x 30” assembled) and so well made
with 100 thick, sturdy pieces that are double-sided. Learn about the inner
workings of a frog as you assemble the detailed anatomy side, learning from the
large Anatomy Guide and Fun Fact Sheet as you go! Then flip the pieces and put
together the exterior side, to see how it appears in nature. A fun, educational
activity that the whole family can enjoy doing together!
Note: All ages can participate, but younger kids will
likely find this puzzle challenging without help. One tip is that the anatomy
side of the frog has puzzle pieces that are slightly glossy while the exterior
side has a very matte finish. Laying them out as “all glossy” or “all matte”
will be very helpful at the start!
Publisher's Description of Frog Animal Anatomy Floor Puzzle (100 pieces)
Snap together an ample amphibian with this American Bullfrog Puzzle. Lithobates catesbeianus
populates the eastern half of North America, from Canada to Mexico,
adding its bass croak to summer's soundtrack. This opportunistic
omnivore chomps on anything its tongue can pull into its mouth and
evades predators with powerful hindlegs that can propel an adult over 5x
its body length.
Make room to be amazed as the assembled 100 pieces span 44 inches!
Soak up twice the learning in the double-sided Turn N Learn puzzle
series. Either arrange this frog's mottled exterior as it appears in the
wild or flip the pieces over to assemble its anatomy as drawn by a
Certified Medical Illustrator. Contextualize what you see with the
included fun fact sheet and anatomy guide.
These 100-piece, reversible floor puzzles are SO cool! Pick
which side to do first, the beautiful exterior of the animal or the
scientifically accurate inside anatomy. They are huge – around 4 feet each,
making the finished product even more fun to assemble and learn from! Artwork
is detailed and the colors are vivid and bright. If you have a glass table, you
can see both sides at once! Each animal includes an Anatomy Guide and Fun Fact
sheet to deepen your learning experience. When the fun is done, each puzzle
stores nicely away in the sturdy box with Velcro closure.
