PUZZLES EXPAND

Kids who want the whole world in their hands can do it in 3-D with these distinctive holiday puzzles. Whether tree frogs, tigers or even the Earth itself, puzzles come in all dimensions to keep young minds and fingers nimble.

TRAVEL TO AFRICA

Kids can drift off to lullabies from across the globe, read along as Delilah tells how she sheared Samson, and swing with a Dixieland band, thanks to these new musical releases.
