2026 Preschool Curriculum Kit
Toddlers love to stack, build, and balance—and Day & Night turns those natural instincts into a clever first logic game. Using 10 colorful wooden pieces, children recreate the structures shown on challenge cards, gradually building spatial reasoning, visual perception, and problem-solving skills along the way.
The 24 Day challenges provide full-color illustrations that show exactly how the pieces should be stacked. As children gain confidence, the 24 Night challenges remove the color cues and replace them with silhouettes, encouraging deeper observation and logical thinking.
The progression feels natural: first matching what they see, then figuring out how the same structure comes together with fewer clues. Each success builds confidence while introducing new opportunities to think, plan, and experiment.
The chunky wooden pieces are perfectly sized for little hands and durable enough for years of play. When challenge time is over, they easily become building blocks for imaginative creations and open-ended play.
With 48 challenges that grow alongside your child, Day & Night combines hands-on building, visual puzzles, and just the right amount of challenge for young learners.

A fun challenge
Danielle D.
We love the quality of the Day & Night puzzle. Although it's still a little challenging for my 2-year-old currently, we enjoy stacking the wooden pieces together. I like how the challenges get harder as you go, enabling him to use this game for years to come.

Our First SmartGame
ScotFlower
This was the first SmartGame we did with my son back when he was about 2 or 3 years old. For that age group it was a real challenge to think through how to put things together so they matched the shadow card and to pay attention to detail to ensure it was correct. Be sure to do the color cards first, then the shadow cards. We have fond memories of doing this together.

Great game between workbooks!
Sarah J.
I was really looking forward to trying out this game with my 3-year-old daughter after reading about the Preschool Kit and watching the YouTube video. Today, when her attention span started to dwindle after doing some pages in her Thinking Skills workbook, we quickly transitioned to this hands-on activity. And, she LOVED it. I loved watching her process how to make the "day" side of the starter cards, realizing that the tree shape is easy to "mess up" if you don't pay attention and the faces are reversible if you're not careful. So, she's learning to pay attention to detail. She even made intentional mistakes just to get a reaction from me (but I knew better)! I had to cut her off at 3 cards today, with it being our first time. I can't wait to watch her progress through the different levels. Thank you!

Creative, Unique & Innovative
Dorothy W.
What a splendid and original puzzle toy! My almost 3 year old loves this and plays with it almost every day. I've had to start limiting his time with it so it stays fresh and makes him want to try harder. There is a nifty card holder that is part of the puzzle to keep the card upright and in your little scholar's sight. It's a dream for kinesthetic and fidgety learners like my son who NEED to be handling and touching something to focus and learn. I love watching my son concentrating on solving the next puzzle and studying what is needed next and what (if anything) needs to be corrected. For promoting logical thinking the Day and Night puzzle is a smash hit for us.

Advanced

While this is a bit too advanced for my daughter, I still find it to be a nice addition to our homeschool. She enjoys playing with the pieces for now, but hopefully later she will be more willing to complete the challenges.

great work
Bina
Our kiddo loves this work and he's able to do it indecently after about a month or so. The challenges on the back are a bit hard so we do those together.

Fun logic game
Maria P.
Day and Night is a fun preschool logic game. The pieces are durable and brightly colored, and the cards encourage shape recognition and positioning. We have played with it once a week for the past 3 months, both freestyle building and following the cards. The night side of the card is a fun challenge to do together, then check on the day side to see if we did it right. I expect we'll continue playing this game throughout the year.
