Personalized Wooden Name Puzzle

Their name is the first word they learn to recognize.

Every letter is a separate piece of painted wood that lifts out of the board and drops back into its own slot, so your child knows they got it right before they can read a single word. Around the name sit the shapes of their world: a rocket that slides along a channel cut into the board, gears that spin, a bear, a whale, a unicorn. On the floor it is a puzzle, on the shelf it is a name plaque they keep long after they have outgrown it. Pick one of five designs and spell the name exactly as you want it made.

Why parents pick it

• Letters built for small hands: thick pieces with rounded, sanded edges, easy to grip and easy to drop back in.
• Every piece has one slot: the board tells your child when the letter is right, so nobody has to correct them.
• A slider that really moves: the rocket, submarine or butterfly rides along a wavy channel routed into the wood.
• No batteries, no screen: nothing to charge, nothing to switch on.
• Two objects in one: a puzzle on the floor, a name on the shelf.
