Diva, at 3, is liking puzzles. I'm looking for a couple that are appropriate for that age group - she's above the baby ones and thinks she can do her older brother's ones (who am I to say she can't?).

Do you know of any good ones that are right for 3 year olds?

My 3 year loves them as well. She likes the 20-30 piece range. You can usually find them at target, walmart and sometimes at the grocery store. She has about 10 of them at my mil and she does them all and lays them out on the dining room table. There are Barbie, Dora, Dogs, horses, all different kinds.

Try Dollar Tree too. They often have the 25 piece puzzles for only $1. I found them year before last and the same ones were $4 at TRU.

Check out Dollar Tree or Kohls for great deals on puzzles for this age group. I found a huge dinosaur floor one at Tuesday Morning that my youngest enjoys doing.
