Here’s another one from the big box with ten double-sided 24 piece educational kids puzzles. They are excellent quality, with interesting pictures, and nice fit. I not ashamed to say I enjoy putting them together even if it only takes a couple of minutes from start to finish.
Here’s the reverse side…
Sometimes I like to take them apart and reassemble the back side, and sometimes I’m lazy as bleep and I just flip it over to take the picture. This time? Lazy. 🤷♀️
Educational kids puzzles make me happy, because a lot of the time I’m learning or re-learning things too! I assembled a bunch of kids puzzles one day to try to bump up the number of puzzles in my queue, and I had a very good time with them.
This double-sided puzzle came from a box containing ten puzzles (20 if you do each side separately) that mom and I found at the thrift store. Luckily each puzzle was bagged by itself so I’m almost certain that all of them will be complete. They’re a very nice quality set of puzzles, with thick pieces that fit together well.
The T-Rex looks like he’s going in to make a meal of the Triceratops, but the Triceratops looks completely oblivious and happy. Too funny!
I don’t feel weird at all assembling these puzzles made for children. Firstly I donate all kids puzzles to a school for special needs kids where my daughter works, and I don’t want to send in any puzzles that are missing pieces. Second, I’m not one of those people who think assembling a small puzzle just isn’t challenging and therefore not worth my time – I’ve done some really difficult kids puzzles! Third, no matter the piece count, I absolutely love jigsaw puzzles.💗
I enjoyed this puzzle very much, and if it suits your fancy I highly recommend it! The quality is excellent, and the image makes for entertaining puzzling. Mom came over to help me finish it and we both had a great time. 🙂
General Store puzzles are usually great fun – there are so many little signs to assemble, and so many things to discover. One of my readers asked me to be sure to show what was behind the windows, and here they are…
You can’t see much with all the signs and things in the way, but there are some shelves inside that you can see.
I love the “Free Beer Tomorrow” sign – it’s never tomorrow! 😉
This is a GORGEOUS image, although it was a little tough in certain sections it was quite fun to assemble. It was very odd to work a grid cut Sunsout, there aren’t many of them around that I’ve seen.
This is another secondhand puzzle that my daughter gave to me, and I’m happy to say it was much nicer to put together than the other one. Sunsout isn’t one of my favorite brands, but I’ve worked some really nice puzzles of theirs too. Most of their puzzles that I’ve done have been a random cut, and this was a refreshing change. The pieces were a good thickness, fit together quite well, and the image reproduction was stellar.
As I’m writing up today’s post it’s reminding me of why I love puzzles. Beautiful images cut into little pieces; and I get to bring order to the chaos. A jumbled bunch of pieces with many colors turns into a complete picture using only my brain and hands. And while I’m putting it together it almost a meditative state; all I think about is what shape fits here, and what color goes there. It’s calming, entertaining, and many other words my sleep-deprived brain can’t think of at the moment. Puzzling rocks! 🤘
Ravensburger 300 piece puzzles are wonderful, and this one is such a pretty picture that it was hard not to love it. 💖
Howard Robinson is becoming a favorite artist for puzzles. I love the pet selfies and other animal images he does, and he also makes some beautiful cottage pictures as well as the gorgeous street scene above. Look at the detail…
I enjoyed this puzzle so much that looking at the pictures three weeks after I’ve already assembled it makes me want to put it together again!
