ROCKET 1-5 PUZZLE | LANKA KADE

Rocket 1-5 Puzzle | Lanka Kade

A wonderfully designed wooden counting puzzle from Lanka Kade — five interlocking pieces that build a classic rocket ship from nose to engine, stacking vertically in the most satisfying way. Piece 1 is the red pointed nose cone, piece 2 the orange body with a porthole window showing a smiling astronaut in an orange space helmet, piece 3 the sky blue engine band with painted grille vents, piece 4 the deep navy body with two large swept-back fins, and piece 5 the orange-red flame thruster at the base. Each piece slots onto the next in perfect sequence — building the rocket from top to bottom and counting from 1 to 5 at the same time.

The astronaut in the porthole is a lovely detail that always gets a reaction: brown skin, orange helmet, smiling face looking out through the dark-rimmed porthole. At 180mm tall and just 102mm wide, this is the tallest and most upright of the Lanka Kade 1–5 puzzles — a proper rocket proportion that children instinctively want to hold upright and “launch”. Made from MDF. Suitable from 10 months.
