Botany Puzzle Cabinet in a child's hands
A beech plywood cabinet with four compartments for the botany puzzles. Puzzles left on an open shelf get stacked, and stacked puzzles lose pieces from the bottom of the pile without anyone noticing until the set is unusable. Four compartments keep each puzzle flat and separate, which is the difference between a material that lasts three years and one that lasts ten. The puzzles are ordered separately. Beech plywood, for ages 3 to 6.
