Trey Davey loves puzzles, especially those of Thomas the Train. He is very adept at matching colors and objects in the picture. We began on simple wooden jigsaw puzzles of just a few pieces and have advanced to larger puzzles of a couple dozen pieces. Historically, an artist would paint a beautiful image on a wooden sheet, and then use a jigsaw to cut his painting into interlocking tiles to create a puzzle. These works were aptly named jigsaw puzzles. While today’s versions are made of cardboard and cut by a laser, they are just as much fun as always. Jigsaw puzzles are also excellent tools for developing problem solving skills. Davey may well be learning the art of solving a mystery.
