Puzzle

Depending on the child’s individual development of visual perception and fine motor skills, children can start doing simple puzzles as early as 12 months of age. To find out whether your child can already start with the adventure puzzle, there are several indicators:

1. your child can consciously and purposefully reach for objects.
2. your child uses the so-called pinch grip when grasping, i.e. he/she picks up the objects with his/her thumb and index finger and can turn and twist them.
3. your child can recognize and distinguish shapes and colors.

When your child has mastered these three skills, it is time to introduce your child to the exciting world of puzzles. However, interest in puzzles cannot be forced and varies from child to child, depending on motif and interest. There are different motifs and levels of difficulty to suit every age The building blocks puzzles from Hubelino are particularly suitable for children who have already gained their first experience with simple puzzles with grip buttons and frame motifs.

Jigsaw puzzles are only fun if the child engages with a puzzle according to his or her age and individual stage of development. In order for a puzzle to unfold its many benefits, it is advisable to choose the right level of difficulty. The 35-piece building blocks puzzle from Hubelino are suitable from the age of 4. At this age, children have already gained puzzle experience and are skilled at assembling the puzzle building blocks. Some children proceed according to the “trial and error” principle, others have already developed methods and strategies to sort the individual puzzle blocks in advance. Children, especially puzzle novices, can usually only concentrate on the puzzle for a short time. It is therefore advisable to support your child while doing the puzzle.

When doing jigsaw puzzles, children train their eye-hand coordination and fine motor skills in a playful way, and challenging motifs are also suitable for improving children’s concentration and patience. Regardless of whether children solve the puzzle motif according to a motif template such as the cardboard or the enclosed card with the resolution of the puzzle or puzzle without assistance, children learn to solve problems through strategy and structure. This also strengthens concentration and memory skills and trains frustration tolerance. Puzzles have numerous, positive influences on a child’s cognitive and motor development. And let’s not forget: When you have solved a puzzle, you are rewarded with a beautiful motif and this strengthens self-confidence.
