Japanese illustrator Kanae Soto's charming artwork is featured in these sets of five different three-piece puzzles, each roughly 3 ? 10 inches. Even as kids 2 and up put together the pieces, the sequential imagery may inspire them to make up stories about what they see.

An egg becomes a chick, and then a hen. A caterpillar forms into a chrysalis and then emerges as a beautiful butterfly! These puzzles tap into the natural fascination that toddlers feel as they see some of the animal world's most amazing transformations.
