When we were taking Charlie to the counselor after Charlie tried to kill himself the counselor said we should purchase Board Games and Jigsaw Puzzles for Charlie to play.
When I begin looking for things for Charlie and I to do on Valentines. Along with Gifts to purchase for David and Charlie. I never thought about purchasing a puzzle until Jiggy reminded me puzzles make the perfect Valentines Day Gift.
I would like to invite you to check out the perfect craft to do on Valentine’s day! Jiggy offers us Family friendly puzzles like Flamingo Playground or an adult design for the parents. David and I can put together the adult designs on our Date Nights.
Hi, we’re Jiggy
We believe that most things in life can be approached one piece at a time.
We believe a little delayed gratification never hurt anyone.
We believe it’s important to appreciate the smallest details, and to remind yourself of the bigger picture.
We believe that sometimes, you just have to try sh*t and see what fits.
We believe puzzle parties are the best kind, and you’re invited to ours.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
I think puzzles are amazing and creative and fun opportunities to work with someone on a shared project. I made a puzzle of the cover of my recent children’s book that you featured. I will post a photo of the puzzle on LinkedIn so folks can see it. Creating puzzles of favorite book covers is fun and makes a book all the more meaningful and puzzles can range in degree of difficulty — from large to medium pieces to small pieces. And it can be done at a relative low cost if one shops around. I have been thinking that providing a puzzle with a book might be good for kids — particularly those who have experienced trauma.
On puzzles, see this piece I just posted: lots of opportunities here.
