Lady Bug Land by Michael Searle – Ravensburger – 300 pieces
Beautiful and colorful, this one was a goldilocks assembly – not too hard, not too easy, just right. I couldn’t pass this bright beauty up when I went to the thrift store, it was too gorgeous to leave it sitting there on the shelf.
Great Ravensburger quality even though it’s been assembled many times. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten one of their puzzles from the thrift store that wasn’t in good shape; they hold up well in my opinion. Especially the smaller piece counts and images made for kids, they’ve always been great quality.
Obviously there was a missing piece, but it’s been a while since I’ve had a thrift store puzzle with a piece that’s gone AWOL. It’s a risk we take when buying second-hand, but it doesn’t bother me much at all.
As a friend told me, “Our job is to put all the pieces together until there are none left; even with missing pieces you can still complete your task and put them all together.”
Mission accomplished! š

You have a good attitude with missing pieces – I on the other hand get rather hysterical! š¤Ŗ

Yes, I love Ravensburgers too. I sometimes do one of the 100/200 piece ones we have just to remember my kids at that long-ago time. These are the ones I’ll be doing in future years when I can not remember/see/hear a thing. This ladybug one is a beauty.

I don’t think it’s that zen, it’s just how things are. š
