Why this is Roost approved

This style of puzzle supports children to think about what belongs together and why, building early reasoning skills in a clear and structured way. The self-correcting format encourages independence while reducing frustration, as each sequence only fits correctly when logically matched. Parents and caregivers may notice growing confidence as children begin explaining their thinking and making connections between everyday objects and their purpose.
