Personalised Children's Puzzle

There's a particular sort of concentration that settles over when a child encounters their own world rendered in puzzle form. The family dog, mid-shake after a swim. Their favourite teddy, happily smiling. Last summer's beach holiday, now scattered across 24 or 49 pieces on the sitting room floor.

Ravensburger's personalised puzzles for children transform their images into proper, substantial jigsaws—the sort with satisfying thickness and that distinctive snap when pieces lock together. They're built with Ravensburger's trademark thickness and precision, ready to withstand the enthusiastic handling of a determined four-year-old and the inevitable repeat assemblies that follow.

Two Sizes, Different Ages

The 24-piece puzzle suits children from four and upwards. Pieces are generously sized—essential for small hands still mastering fine motor control—and the relatively quick completion time delivers that crucial sense of achievement before attention wanders.

By age five or six, most children are ready for the 49-piece version. It's a noticeable step up in complexity: more visual information to process, more sustained focus required. The challenge generally holds interest for a good half-hour of absorbed quiet—worth noting for parents strategically planning weekend mornings.

When Our Children's Personalised Jigsaw Puzzles Work Best

Birthdays work well—a photo from the party itself is ideal. The climbing wall, everyone round the table in the garden, the candles about to be blown out. Children will happily spend an hour piecing together their own afternoon. "There's Uncle James." "That's my new football."

Christmas morning is different. A child unwrapping a puzzle of last summer's beach trip, or them with their favourite teddy—it lands perfectly. Their own world turned into something absorbing while everyone else fiddles with batteries and fights with packaging.

Why these puzzles don't fall apart

Each personalised photo jigsaw uses the same manufacturing kit as Ravensburger's standard range. The die-cutting is precise enough that pieces lock together firmly without needing to force them.

The 2mm cardboard won't buckle when you're shifting assembled sections around, and the matt finish means you can work by a window without squinting through the glare.

Your Questions Answered

What's the difference between the 24-piece puzzle and the 24-piece Mammut (XXL) puzzle?

The standard 24-piece puzzle has regular-sized pieces and measures approximately 18 x 24 cm when complete. It comes in a personalised tin and works well as a traditional jigsaw.

The Mammut version also has 24 pieces, but each piece is substantially larger—about 20 x 17 cm. The completed puzzle measures 69 x 49 cm, making it large enough to use as a play mat on the floor. Once assembled, children can drive toy cars across it or use it as scenery for imaginative play. The Mammut comes in a cardboard box rather than a tin.

What age are these puzzles suitable for?

All three puzzles are recommended from age 4 upwards.

The 24-piece Mammut works well for younger children in this age range. The larger pieces are easier for small hands to grip and manipulate.

The standard 24-piece puzzle suits children from 4 onwards, though it requires slightly more dexterity than the Mammut version.

The 49-piece version is best for children at the older end of the range—typically five or six upwards—as it requires more sustained concentration.

What image resolution do I need?

At least 2000 x 2000 pixels for good quality reproduction. The design tool shows you a preview before you confirm the order, so you'll see if your image looks sharp or pixelated.

Images that are too low resolution will appear blurry when printed on the puzzle pieces.

What makes a good photograph for a children's puzzle?

Close-ups work better than distant shots. If you're photographing people, aim for 3 to 5 individuals maximum—more than that and faces become too small to distinguish clearly on the pieces.

Good natural light helps. Outdoor photographs generally translate better than indoor ones, unless you've got strong, even lighting.

Scenes with variety in colour and pattern are easier for children to puzzle. A photograph of someone wearing a plain jumper against a plain wall offers fewer visual clues than a garden scene or beach photograph.

Can I see what the puzzle will look like before ordering?

Yes. The design tool shows you exactly how your photograph will appear on the puzzle, including the tin lid or box. You can adjust the crop and positioning before confirming.
