  • 52 wooden pieces; match pieces to create the 26 letters of the alphabet

Description

Kids can match letters to pictures and explore early literacy through hands-on puzzle play. With 52 wooden pieces—one for each uppercase and lowercase letter—children pair letters with labeled illustrations, reinforcing recognition and vocabulary. Each piece fits only with its correct match, helping kids build confidence and independence as they play. The self-correcting design encourages trial and error, while the detailed images spark curiosity and storytelling. Pieces can be used on their own for sorting, sequencing, and letter games, or stored neatly in the included wooden box with a slide-in lid. Whether kids are learning the alphabet or practicing matching skills, this activity supports early reading readiness, fine motor development, and problem-solving. Designed for repeated use, this classic puzzle turns letter learning into a purposeful, screen-free experience that fits naturally into everyday play.

For more creative fun, combine this with the Melissa and Doug 100 Piece Wood Block Set, the Shape Sorting Cube, or the See and Spell Learning Toy, for meaningful learning beyond the classroom

For 35+ years, Melissa and Doug has crafted imaginative preschool toys and durable wooden toys built to nurture childhood wonder, with everything from a life-sized grocery store playset to a play kitchen playset and play food to serve plush toys & puppets, to costumes, arts & crafts, and road trip activities for kids.

    Dont throw lid away

    Don’t throw all the plastic away… it’s the lid. Super annoying because they put a a thick plastic at the bottom of the packaging and then cardboard inside the box but it’s just plastic all around. Wouldn’t have thought the thick plastic was the cover needed for the box. I handed the box to my daughter and threw the rest in the bin and Recycling came and now I have no lid.

    These are great self-correcting tiles for introducing the alphabet letters, upper and lowercase. You can use these to work on letter sounds and connecting that to the letter using the helpful pictures. Color skills and animal identification are also a great byproduct of these tiles.

    Great product but don't sell missing parts

    We bought this a couple years ago and now our son is just getting old enough to use it but some neighbor kids lost/took a couple of his pieces. Rather than buying a new set, I called asking for replacement parts thinking this would be a common thing they would offer but I was told they don't have them. For the cost of the item, it doesn't make sense to buy a whole new one for 2 missing pieces. Wish they offered replacement parts.

    Hi, Thank you for taking the time to comment. We wish that we could magically replace all lost pieces and parts to our toys, but unfortunately it is not possible to stock each and every piece. We do appreciate your feedback and will be sure to pass it along. Best, Your Friends at Melissa & Doug

    Only one negative.

    Kids love them the only part I would fix is mix up the puzzle connections. Too similar.

    Great quality and endless play

    Really appreciate Melissa and Dougs toys being of such high quality they can be used generation after generation with no worry if toxic materials or plastics. Great combination of puzzles and learning letters at the same time. I appreciate that the letter toys have different pictures as well to teach him many different words that begin with the letters rather so we collect them all! Appreciate the variety. Thanks guys

    Good quality and colorful

    My preschooler doesn't have the attention span to solve all 26, so I give him 5 to 10 at a time and he enjoys it.
