Most of the pieces wouldn’t lay flat so they wouldn’t stick to the fridge. I loved this idea, but was really disappointed that this set was useless. We had to return it.

Good pre school educated toy

The first one we got came with a ton of the states all bent and rounded so they would not stay on the fridge. I reached out to customer service and they sent a new one. Pieces were perfect in that one so the first may have been a fluke. 4 year old loves this puzzle and is getting really good at learning the states. I would recommend this

Do not buy. Puzzle pieces do not go together well. Magnets are not strong enough to stick on the metal refrigerator. Some of the puzzle pieces were bent in the box. Terrible quality.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this set but better for older kids (5-12) to learn.

Really great idea badly executed. The magnets don’t stick on surfaces like they should such as my child’s whiteboard so we had to use the dishwasher and we have a double door refrigerator that the map is too large for. Also the quality of each piece isn’t what i thought it’d be. Very paper like surface that i can see will easily take shape if bent or pressed in place too hard as sometimes children will do. Lastly, they do not slide with ease on surfaces (my home’s surfaces at least). I had better hopes for this as we own alot of Learning Resources items.

it's made of like foam material with magnetics on the back.. the pieces fit nicely together

I grew up in Wheeling, WV which is located in the Northern panhandle of WV. I am searching for a puzzle of the United States that is accurate and disappointed to discover that the company called Learning Resources does not recognized where I grew up. I've given 2 stars vs 1 because it appears that many of the pieces are shaped properly.

This is a really cool magnetic map to help teach states and capitals.
