Day 19 of the UK Covid-19 lockdown… Are you running out of ideas for keeping the kids (or yourself) busy and engaged? People have been playing board games as an enjoyable and sociable way to pass the time.
Educational jigsaws are also a great idea for multiple reasons; for a start, they can take a lot of time (especially if it’s a 1000-piece jobby), patience and concentration to complete. Secondly, they can be done as a solitary pastime or with the family. Thirdly, you can stop, get up and go do something else, and return to it at a later time… try doing that during a fierce game of Monopoly!
In addition to all those positives, the jigsaws we’ve chosen will also teach you a thing or two. The Bodleian puzzle is an image of a segment of antique books in the children’s section of the library. You’ll learn a bit about children’s book titles and authors, piecing together the beautifully decorated spines and covers.
The Victory jigsaw not only teaches you the geography and industries of Europe, but also its history; countries such as Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and USSR no longer exist and Germany hadn’t yet been reunified.
With The Little Boys Room example, you can choose to have a map of your local area turned into a jigsaw. I love the way that the piece where your home is located is in the shape of a house! It’s a sure-fire, fun way to learn your way around your neighbourhood.
