Early Childhood Interactive Puzzles

Find a partner, notice a difference, or decide where something belongs. Start with a clear picture and one small choice at a time.

Little steps, useful practice

What children can practise

Choose something to try

Games to explore

Games open at your child’s current profile Level. Read instructions together, use Listen where offered, and take a break whenever you like.

Help your child get started

Make the first clue concrete

Name the shape, object or feature together. Begin with an obvious match before asking a child to remember a hidden picture or describe a difference.

Help with reading and movement

Read instructions aloud and use tap controls where offered. Choose a quiet mode when available, and help a child put a comparison into words without requiring an independent answer.

Try it at home

Find a matching pair of socks or compare two leaves. Ask what looks the same and what looks different before returning to a picture puzzle.

Try it in the classroom

Invite children to sort a small set of pictures together. Let them point, gesture or explain, and revisit the group rule when an item could fit more than one idea.

A few useful answers

Which preschool puzzle should we try first?

Shape Match offers a direct same-shape choice in the youngest band. Matching Cups adds remembering, while sorting and spotting differences invite closer comparison. Use the child’s response to decide the next step.

How do we choose a Level and start playing?

Open a game or Go to Worlds, then choose a Level using the shared profile controls if you have not chosen one yet. Levels 1–2 correspond to the age-two band, 3–4 to ages 3–4, 5–6 to ages 5–6, 7–8 to ages 7–8, and 9–10 to ages 9–10. The first Level in each pair offers a starter collection; the second offers a fuller collection. Age is guidance, and a discovery-page link does not change the profile.

Are the games free, and where is progress saved?
