Mark has a proprietary process for printing, sealing and lasercutting quality puzzles from wooden hardboard.
Puzzles can have regular jigsaw shapes, but more complicated hexagonal worms are our unique puzzle style.
Puzzles can have straight edges or can follow the outlines of any object.

My daughter received the Animalloys and Animal Connections games for from Brainy Games for her 3rd birthday and they are both awesome!
The Animalloys tiles are perfect for use on an easel whiteboard but can also be used on a baking sheet.
My daughter really enjoys trying to figure out how to put the animals together but she also thinks it's hilarious to mix up different heads, bodies, and tails and create "new" animals.
The animals are also quite interesting and different with realistic looking pictures.
She is learning new animals that she hasn’t seen before.
The Animal Connections game is great for children to learn various animal characteristics. With my help, my daughter is learning to make various connections between animals and word descriptors and group animals by similar attributes. I think this game is a great learning tool that will grow will her as she learns to read. The tiles for this game also came in a beautiful wooden box! I am glad we received these games as a gift and highly recommend them!
