Full description

An alphabet puzzle in which each letter of the alphabet is composed of a child forming that letter with their full body. Child users imitate the children shown in the puzzle by learning their alphabet through body movement while arranging the puzzle pieces, or by making these letter shapes with their own acrobatic moves. Each puzzle piece contains a single letter and child, and the pieces join together in a neat grid.
