We may be an exceptionally nerdy family but this puzzle has been a favorite for decades. We all love to travel and it’s a wonderful geography refresher and prompts great stories of our past travels. I was happy to see that there were still copies available. We sent this as a Christmas gift to a family with high school age children.

Puzzle was brand new in a sealed box when purchased. Some of the pieces were bent, which was frustrating. In order to get the countries to stick together you need to build the ocean first as like a “frame,” but I’m more interested in learning the countries and not wasting time on building the ocean. The countries are not the shape of the puzzle pieces, which is annoying because I was expecting each country of size to be its own piece.

Plan on gluing it together as you go. Some pieces are very tiny, and you do have to start with the edge frame. Some pieces are just a tiny bit off, Going top to bottom,or one side to the other, gluing while you go, works.My 8 year old grandson had fun doing the continents. I got to do the oceans. !!

If you don’t start from the sea then is almost impossible to make because the pieces don’t stick together
