Puzzler


Greta is helping Ada with the art of puzzling.  If she takes after Erin and her Pop, she’ll be a great jigsaw master.  Erin learned from the best.  Pieces must be sorted.   Before the puzzle is even started, there’s lots of tasks.  All this makes me tired and I want to put the pieces back in the box.  Greta and Clayton work on huge puzzles.   Below are some benefits of puzzling.

1. Concentration

2. Spatial Awareness

3. Shape Recognition

4. Topic-Specific Knowledge

5. Fine Motor Ability

6. Hand-Eye Coordination

7. Problem Solving Skills

8. Language

9. Memory

10. Self Esteem

11. Social Skills

And..I know Ada is really smart because when she is not ready to meet the day in the morning, she covers her head with her blanket!
