I started introducing 2-pieced jigsaw puzzle to Justin when he’s about 18 months old. But he didn’t know much what to do with it, and got frustrated easily because he didn’t have the motor skills yet.

I put the jigsaw aside, but kept on trying to see if he’s interested. It’s only until he’s 22 months old that he knows how to join the 2 pieces of puzzles together. Now, he can play them by himself and completes about 15 pairs of jigsaw.

Since he’s started to get bored with this set, I bought him another one. It’s a fruit series with 3, 4, 5 and 6 pieces of individual jigsaw.

He had a hard time at first, trying to fix them together, but after a week, he’s very good at them already. But then, to attract his interest in puzzles, I got another new set. It’s a set of jigsaw with 4, 6, 9 and 12 pieces of brightly printed pictures, and Justin likes the one with pigs especially.However, I still need to help him with this set as they’re more complicated for him, and he gets confused about the orientation sometimes. He only has this for a week, so I’ll see when he’ll master the set first before buying new sets.

As for the old set, Isabelle’s playing with it, but put them in her mouth instead!

  1. wahh..where to get 2pcs jigsaw puzzle? lately i bought 6 pieces…

  2. Jazzmint, I bought it from Popular. There’re a few selections. That was some time ago, not sure if they still have it. But you can ask the staffs. :)

  3. Puzzles are good for my kids but not for me. It’s hard work to find the lost pieces. I cannot remember how many puzzles I’ve stashed away hoping that my kids have forgotten about them :)

  4. Oh,the lilypie reminds me Justin no even 2 yrs old yet. Don’t worry, he will improve later.

  5. wow so fast you started him on puzzles. Don’t worry he will pick it up very fast. RE likes puzzles very much and he is relatively good in it.
