FAQ For Puzzles For Kids
Puzzle how many pieces for what age?
Overall, you should always consider the manufacturer’s specifications, because puzzles vary greatly in their form (number of pieces, size of the pieces, motif, …). However, there are the following guidelines, which do not replace the age recommendation of the manufacturer (keyword: swallowable small parts depending on the version!):
From 2 years maximum 20 puzzle pieces
From 4 years maximum 60 puzzle pieces
From 6 years maximum 500 puzzle pieces
From 9 years maximum 1000 puzzle pieces.
Puzzle finished what now?
Completing a puzzle often takes a lot of time and effort. Also, the picture usually looks very pretty at the end. So it’s understandable that many people don’t want to destroy the puzzle right away. The simplest variant is to simply leave the puzzle for a while. However, it often takes up space there or falls apart due to touching and shifting. An alternative is to fix the puzzle with special puzzle glue. It can then be hung on the wall in a picture frame in the children’s room, for example.
Children’s puzzle from when?
Since there are many different versions of puzzles, the age recommendations are also different. There are already special models for children from 2 years. You should stick to the age recommendation, because in addition to a loss of fun and concentration (if the puzzle is too heavy), it may also contain small parts that can be swallowed.
What types of puzzles are there?
In addition to the familiar flat shape, there are also 3D puzzles. These usually work without glue and hold because the pieces are curved accordingly.
What is a frame puzzle?
With a children’s frame puzzle, your child will encounter familiar motifs such as Peterson and Findus or Bob the Builder.
What kind of puzzles are there?
There are different types of puzzles. To name a few examples: 3D puzzle, floor puzzle, cube puzzle, round puzzle, puzzle ball and many more.
What is the best way to do a puzzle?
It would make sense if there is enough space. Then it is recommended to start with the edge and arrange the parts by color, so that there is a good overview.
Puzzle best glue?
The best way to glue a puzzle is with double-sided tape. the puzzle is clamped between two pieces of cardboard and fixed. Then, row by row, the double-sided tape is attached to the back of the puzzle.
Is puzzling healthy?
Psychologists confirm that puzzling is relaxing and brain jogging.
What is a puzzle mat?
A puzzle mat is a surface mostly made of felt. On this the puzzle can be solved and if one has no more desire, the mat can be rolled up together with the puzzle.
