Bring the Sonoran Desert to life—one puzzle piece at a time! The Desert Friends Wooden Puzzle is a delightful blend of play and discovery, made just for curious young minds. Designed for kids ages 4 and up, this 48-piece wooden puzzle features twelve iconic desert animals, from the lightning-fast roadrunner to the elusive mountain lion cub.
Each piece is more than just part of the picture—it’s a little window into the wild. Underneath each animal is a fun fact that teaches your child something new about their desert neighbors. Did you know horned lizards can squirt blood from their eyes? Or that the fennec fox has ears nearly as big as its body? These kid-friendly facts will spark giggles, gasps, and a lifelong love for the natural world.
Crafted from durable wood and beautifully illustrated by Jan Patrik Krasny, the puzzle measures 15 x 11 inches—just the right size for little hands. Whether you’re a Tucson local, a visitor looking for a unique souvenir, or someone who just loves the charm of the Southwest, this puzzle makes a perfect gift.
It’s more than a toy—it’s a learning tool, a memory-builder, and a screen-free way for kids to connect with the desert in a playful, hands-on way. And let’s be honest—parents love it, too.
