Very Puzzling

Puzzles are an important part of preschool development. This group of kids has been puzzle-crazy over the last few weeks. I feel like the last few groups of kids I have had, have not been as interested in puzzles.  The amazing part is seeing the huge range of abilities, which often seem to have no connection to their ages. It often seems that puzzle solving is more natural to some than others, while others need more guidance and practice.  We are lucky to have a wide selection of puzzles with different difficulty levels and styles.  They have mastered all our small puzzles and I think it is time to start moving them towards the harder and more complex floor puzzles.

All Shapes and Sizes

Teamwork
With some puzzles there are many ways to put it together

Hooray! I did it.
Exploration
This puzzle always seems to be a work in progress. :)
