Can the pieces be made larger for a senior who doesnt see well?

I understand your difficulty. Absolutely the pieces can be enlarged, plus you can also change the amounts and the shape of the pieces for easier viewing.

Yes you can change the size and style of the pieces, the program has trays that you can use to organize the pieces as you're doing it. The large size is about 3/4" maybe a little less.

To increase the size of the puzzle pieces, open the puzzle you want to work. If the "Tip of the jigsaw" menu is open, close it. Open "Tools" on the menu bar at the top of the screen by clicking on it once, and then click on "Piece Size". At the bottom of the "Set Piece Size and Shape" menu, "Set Size" is listed. Use the decrease/increase arrows to increase the size of the pieces and then click ok. You can increase up to 300%; but the larger the size, the more pixelated the picture will become.

YES. You can do a lot of different things with this set, including changing piece sizes. The sizes range from around 1/8" up to an inch or so. You can choose any size you want for each individual puzzle. Obviously, the small size is very hard to see and work with. I love this puzzle set and recommend it highly. If you love jigsaw puzzles, you won't be disappointed.

I'm not sure because my son doesn't use all the pieces at one time. He likes to make different configurations with the pieces.

I totally understand- it's fun to create different designs, but it would be cooler if you could do them taller. We have an older set, from a friend who's kids are grown and I'm not sure what brand it is, but it's more sturdily built & I was hoping we could use them together, but these marbulous ones are a little smaller. I wish I could help more, but all I know is the two sets we have are not compatible, so at this point I would recommend getting more of the same. I've seen these things in teacher supply /educational stores though, so maybe you could bring a piece into one of them & ask to try another one? Good luck!

Most are as wide as a half-dollar. Some more the size of a quarter. I am aged 79 and I had no trouble holding the pieces.

NoThe playing surface is larger, but the cards and pieces are the same size. There may be a benefit to someone with sight problems, but I actually prefer playing on the smaller board.

No. The pieces are really tiny, there are many of them and it's a really small model. My 9 year old grandson was a bit overwhelmed by the tiny, tiny size. Would not recommend for a 7 year old

My personal opinion is based solely on observing my 5 and 6 year old grandsons. Relative small size of pieces make various pieces difficult to identify. Too many pieces to look through for someone that young. Tendency may be to lose interest.

The pieces are easily amovible in general, but I don't know about that :( sorry

I have only ever purchased the Adult Dog Food, not the Senior stuff, but I would assume the pieces are the same size and if that's true then no, these are the larger chunks of dog food. Maybe you could grind them up in a food processor or mash them or soften them with warm water. Sorry I couldn't be more help! Good luck :)

Since my Mother age 96 is losing her sight we ordered this. It helps her but there is no turntable which we had never used anyway. But there are no groves to help hold the letters so that makes it difficult as they slide and she cannot see if an ajacent space is open. My opinion is that a larger sized board implies a special need and should have all deluxe features for the sight impaired. The grids and the turntable. The larger letters help and we can still play. I wish the manufacturers knew this

Yes there are a lot of small pieces that require a large amount of patience putting together so I would recommend someone older.

I suppose you could with the 2 bigger ones but not the smaller ones. They are much smaller than they appear overall.

Yes, too small. My four-year old loves this, but needs help putting things together.

I don't think you could poke a hole through them but you might be able to make something work if you picked up some screw eyes at a hardware store. I've been trying to find Mario ornaments and I think that's what I'm going to try with some of our extra figures.

They aren't very large but I am a senior with really bad eyesight and I can read them.

Check the photos. One of the pics provided has the measurements of each price. You can arrange the pieces as you please.
