Completing Puzzles Builds Patience and Problem-Solving Skills in Children

Last Updated 1/25/2023In ARS Wellness, Homepage Feed

Did you know that completing puzzles allows students to regain their thoughts, focus, and builds patience and problem-solving skills?

"Jigsaw puzzles are a common sight in PreK and early elementary classrooms. Little ones learn spatial reasoning, hand-eye coordination, and basic concepts like shapes and letters using these puzzles. By late elementary, puzzles are usually relegated to a game shelf to be brought out during indoor recess, if at all. But jigsaw puzzles offer benefits for all ages, and teachers can use them in a variety of ways, some of which may surprise you."
