This is a jigsaw puzzle map of Africa and the Middle East, with individual pieces shaped like countries. As children assemble the puzzles, they learn about each country from Algeria to Zimbabwe while building cognitive, problem-solving, fine-motor and language skills. According to a recent poll by National Geographic, most Americans ages 18 to 24 do not know that Sudan and Rwanda are in Africa, and 63 percent cannot find Iraq or Saudi Arabia on a map of the Middle East.
