MASTERPIECE - jigsaw puzzles

500 pcs
1000 pcs
2000 pcs

My girl started toying with jigsaw puzzles when she is about 4 years old. 20 pcs to 50 pcs to 100 pcs to 250 pcs and she gets more ambitious each time she completes one. So this is what happened subsequently: 500 pcs - 5 years old, 1000 pcs - 6 years old and the most recent one is 2000 pcs - 7 years old. A childhood game has now turned into a hobby for her. I think this is good as it helps to cultivate patience, problem solving skill...... It is also great for family bonding because we (daddy, mummy, younger brother, ah gong, ah ma) will sometimes gather together to help her. We have lots of fun doing that together and we are so proud of her at the moment of hanging up the jigsaw puzzle. However, running out of wall space for any new display.
