My Project

In our preschool classroom, we have a variety of puzzles, but the majority of our students have grown so much that they have already mastered them! I need to give them a challenge by providing them with more options of puzzles that present varying levels of difficulty.

Not only will these puzzles challenge their problem solving, fine, and visual motor skills, but the giant floor puzzles will also promote cooperative play for the students as they take turns and work together!

Learning to play and work well with others is one of the biggest benefits of preschool! We incorporate all of these areas of development through play each day, so more puzzles would be the perfect addition to our learning space!

Currently, we are limited to the two giant floor puzzles in our classroom that have been put together multiple times. These kids are ready for a new challenge so I'm asking for unique puzzles that are appropriate, fun, and based on topics that they are familiar with and enjoy! Any small donation will be a little piece to our big picture!
