Jigsaw Puzzle



Alycia and Sherilyn love jigsaw puzzles. Alycia is quite good with them and can easily fix a 30-piece jigsaw puzzle in under 10 minutes. I had always thought that Alycia lacks attention span but when it comes to jigsaw puzzles, she can spend close to 1 hour quietly and intently fixing the puzzle. So whenever I need to get some work done, I'll just let her play with her puzzles and get her to teach Sherilyn the tricks to fixing a jigsaw puzzle. I intend to get her some new jigsaw puzzles with more pieces, probably a 100-piece one so that she will spend longer time fixing them and I get longer time to do my work!

That's really good...at least your angels can spend some time quietly to do it and you have some time to yourself :D I don't think mine can sit still like that.

Jazzmint...sherilyn is like faythe, doesnt really understand that she has to begin with the sides first. I think towards 3yo wld be a better age for them to understand coz that's when Alycia began to get pro at puzzles when she was reaching 3yo.
