Giraffe Puzzle for Kids

This puzzle turns a sunny giraffe picture into sixteen numbered pieces. The giraffe wears a blue striped bow tie and waves beside an apple tree, with butterflies, a small bird on a branch, a rabbit peeking out of the corner and a wooden fence. Below the picture is an empty grid of sixteen boxes, each printed with a number from 1 to 16.

Cut along the lines and place each piece on the box that shows the same number, then see which animal appears. It's good practice for number recognition up to 16, matching and scissor skills, for preschool and kindergarten.

Want to count dots instead of reading numerals? Try the Elephant Puzzle. The Monkey Puzzle uses the same numbered grid with a different picture.
