Jigsaw puzzles are one of the classic games that must be played in childhood, and mothers can also start to provide some jigsaw puzzles to their babies, which not only make babies experience a full sense of accomplishment after success, but also exercise their fine motor skills and concentration. And patience, is a good toy.
At the beginning, mothers should choose the kind of puzzle that corresponds to a hole, an embedded puzzle, and the puzzle must be large enough! The reason why the puzzle is large is because the baby needs to judge which hole corresponds to the shape of the puzzle. . If the puzzle is too small, the baby will not be able to see the shape clearly after holding it in his hand, which will affect the TA’s judgment.
In addition to the choice of puzzles, how to let the baby start playing puzzles is also critical. If the difficulty is too high at the beginning, it will make the baby full of frustration and lose interest in continuing to play. Therefore, you can let the baby play with the circular puzzle that is easy to align, or show the baby a few times, how to match correctly, or even put 50% of the puzzle into the hole, so that the baby can complete the rest section below. This makes it easier for the baby to master the skills.
When the baby can skillfully complete the circular puzzle, let TA play triangle, square, or other simple shape puzzles. But don’t let the baby play complex alphabet or number puzzles as soon as they come up. For babies of this age, TA does not have so much interest and ability to align complex shapes.
When the baby is about 1.5 years old, you can let TA try puzzles with more than two pieces. At this time, the baby mainly judges the position of the puzzle by the shape, so the shape of each puzzle can not be the same, so that the baby can easily identify it. In addition, the different colors on the puzzle board can also help the baby to judge. After that, the mother gradually increases the difficulty of the puzzle according to the baby’s situation. Every time the baby completes the puzzle, don’t forget to praise him, it will make the baby happy!
