Wooden inset puzzle ‘New Year’s — 1’

About the game

Hiding behind the frosty windows are Santa, a snowman, a polar bear and other New Year characters. Help each one find its place, then turn your favourite figures into festive decorations!

‘Christmas — 1’ is a wooden sorting puzzle featuring six winter characters and objects. The child finds the right places for the figures on the base by matching their silhouettes. And after playing, the figures can be used as decorations for the Christmas tree.
