The quality was excellent. It was strudy and the lettering was clear. I would have liked it just a little larger as some of the state pieces were on the small size. My grandson is only 4 and enjoys doing USA maps all the time. He has extended his interest to Canada and it was wondeful to find a map combining the two so he could gain presective on Canada in relationship to the USA.

Purchased Geopuzzle Europe last year for our then 4 year old, who loved it immediately--she prefers geographical puzzles to picture puzzles. As a result, at 5, she knows European geography better than most adults! She asked for more Geopuzzles and we cheerfuly obliged. There are many USA puzzles out there (we have one) but we believe it is important for children to know that the USA and Canada share the North American continent. The non-interlocking pieces hone fine motor skills, and searching for particular place names reinforces reading skills.
good puzzle

I've bought this puzzle before. It's well made, and I like it includes Canada as well as the United States.
