The weather is getting better, and we’re spending more time outside. Many of us have fewer puzzles in warmer months. We spent time with our children and went out more often. Life is in the way.
I did a lot of puzzles during the pandemic. My daughter is younger, and I’m not that busy. Now we have after school and weekend activities. As a result, my puzzle time has declined, and I’m in a bit of a slum. It bothers me because I love puzzles and I love brain exercise.
I found some solutions to this.
The first option is to focus on the puzzle that I really want to do with the images I love. We tend to buy too much and store puzzles. When you do a lot of puzzles, they can start to look the same. As a result, I cleaned and collected money. Now I have puzzles that I’m really interested in, and not questions that collect dust. Find joy in riddles. Make wise choices and share some choices that you have little love for.
The next option is to count smaller pieces. If you need to solve the puzzle, and there is no time to solve the puzzle 1000, 2000 pieces, take a small piece. I call it snacks. MicroPression is a great example.
You can finish quickly and you can take them with you! There are also many 300, 500 and 750 puzzles to try. The Wooden puzzle is another option. Smaller pieces and another experience can change things slightly!
Finally, turn it into a family activity. Let’s take your family to the Disney puzzle game. Teach me about puzzles.
Also, Cobble Hill has some new family puzzles with small, medium and large pieces. Here’s an example.
And sometimes, we need to rest. Walk, go to the park. Your riddle will be ready when you arrive.
