Here is a bit of puzzle trivia…The first jigsaw puzzle was created around 1760, when John Spilsbury, a British engraver and mapmaker, mounted a map on a sheet of wood that he then sawed around each individual country. Spilsbury used the product to aid in teaching geography. After catching on with the wider public, this remained the primary use of jigsaw puzzles until about 1820. On that note, there are so many types of puzzles that we carry such as logic, learning, word, mathematical, jigsaw, 4D, and so on. We recently added a few Thomas Kinkade art puzzles that would make a great gift this year. You could also sit at the table with your family and create a great conversation while pondering over how to arrange the pieces. To make it more interesting, you could time yourself and try to beat your best time at a later date or better still, make it a competition and see what other friends or family can beat your time. Here is a video on "How to solve a Jigsaw puzzle". I hope you enjoy it. Now is the time to get your boxes out and give it a try. Fall is coming and this is a great indoor pass time. Give us a few of your ideas on how you put yours together. Live life and play hard,Alishia by: World At Play Games
