Songbirds 500 Piece Family Puzzle

The matte box is sturdier than the flimsy ones I usually get, so it'll actually survive being stored between holidays. All 18 birds are distinct enough that my kids could each claim a favorite while we worked.

Did this with my mom over two evenings and the bird illustrations are genuinely pretty, each one distinct enough that we kept stopping to point out favorites. Pieces fit snugly with no blurry prints or bent edges, and 500 felt like the right size for two people.

The box is sturdy enough that I've kept it on the shelf for a second round, and the matte finish makes it feel nicer than most puzzle boxes I've owned. Took us about three evenings to finish all 500 pieces, and the bird illustrations kept my kids interested the whole time.
