Ravensburger would like to thank you for your loyalty with this free puzzle app for kids. There are no intrusive ads or hidden in-app purchases to interfere with the gaming experience. For over 50 years, Ravensburger has been known as Europe's market leader for its high-quality puzzles. In this app we combine the tradition and experience of the classic jigsaw puzzle world with the advantages and possibilities of the digital world. With the "Ravensburger Puzzle Junior" app, young puzzle fans can enjoy their first puzzle experience. The abilities of preschool children have been carefully taken into account: the puzzle pieces cannot be accidentally rotated and the table is centred, allowing the children to fully concentrate on completing the puzzle. Several children can also complete a puzzle at the same time. 72 varied puzzle designs guarantee many hours of puzzling fun for both girls and boys alike, with puzzles of different subjects including cute animals from all over the world, princesses, unicorns, pirates, tractors, fire engines and police cars. Children don't need to be able to read to play the app. Everything uses self-explanatory icons and simple animations. We recommend this app for preschool children of 2 ½ to 5 years. Features: • 72 varied designs (half are illustrations, half are animal pictures) • 4 different-sized pieces (6-, 12-, 20- and 35-piece puzzles) • No reading ability required • Interactive Help which only appears if necessary • Original Ravensburger hand-made puzzle cuts - every single puzzle piece is unique
