Your children can explore the solar system with this unique round puzzle while expanding their knowledge of the planets and more.

As you know, the solar system is a pretty large place, so this puzzle might be frustrating for young children if the majority of the pieces were all blackness. We took on this challenge by including a clue on every single piece as to its location, whether it be background galaxies, quasars, nebulas, comets, colored planet orbits, or the beautiful background glow of the Milky Way. This beautiful depiction was designed by famed puzzle designer, Michael Searle. To ensure educational accuracy, he made sure that each orbit is shown as slightly elliptical rather than round, just like in reality.

On the back of the puzzle box, there is a planetary guide that tells you all about the sun, the planets, and the other stellar bodies. All in all, this educational puzzle ends up being very entertaining as well.
