A5 format - From 3 years old Each piece of the puzzle reveals it as it goes. You will find other figures among the component parts. Our Puzzle will allow you to spend interesting and fun time with the whole family. The moments of complicity will thus be there. Its decorative aspect will not leave you indifferent! 🧩 The puzzle itself is made of 4mm thick wooden plywood cut using a high precision laser. This ensures that all parts fit together perfectly. 🧩 Each piece is pleasant to hold in your hands. The aroma of natural wood will create a special magic when assembling the puzzle. Even after a while, the puzzle does not lose its colors and retains its original appearance.
Our craftsmanship
Made by our family, piece by piece
Every creatifwood puzzle starts as a sheet of birch plywood in our family workshop. We laser-cut every piece into its own shape – no two are alike – check each set by hand, and pack it in a gift-ready box. No production lines, no shortcuts – just a small family that loves working with wood, and takes it personally that your puzzle brings people together around the table.

Why does this puzzle have no straight edges?
The outline follows the shape of the design itself, so the usual approach of building the border first does not apply. Most people start from the area with the strongest contrast – in animal designs, usually the eye – and work outward from there.
What are the animal-shaped pieces for?
They are called whimsy pieces, a tradition that goes back to Victorian puzzle cutters who added recognisable shapes on a whim while working. Parker Brothers made it a standard in 1908. They do not interlock the way ordinary pieces do, so the pieces around them hold them in place.
Is this harder than a cardboard puzzle of the same size?
Yes, for three reasons. There is no straight border to anchor from, the ornamental patterning repeats so colour sorting barely helps, and the piece shapes are irregular rather than a uniform knob-and-socket grid.
How long will it take?
Honestly: longer than you expect. With no border to anchor from, repeating ornament and irregular pieces, a wooden puzzle takes noticeably longer than a cardboard one with the same count. We think that is part of the pleasure – it is made to be savoured, not raced.
Can I glue it and hang it on the wall?
You can hang it, but skip the liquid puzzle glue: it is designed for cardboard, and on wood we would rather not gamble with moisture or a gloss over the laser relief. Dry adhesive film on the back holds just as well, risks nothing, and leaves the front exactly as it left the workshop.
Why does it smell of wood when I open the box?
Laser cutting leaves a light trace of scorching on the edges. We clean the pieces before packing, but a faint smell of cut wood in the first days is normal and fades.
Which age is it suitable for?
It is shown on each product page under Specifications. Most designs in this range are marked 14+, and a few simpler ones are suitable from 3.
