An Elf puzzle.
As puzzles go, I like this one. It's got enough contrast, but some difficult blue and green and white areas. Good puzzles should put up a challenge. I didn't work on this one...I don't think I put in one piece. It was done by the boys, my wife, daughter, and son-in-law. On a good day with all of us involved, we can hammer out a 1k piece puzzle in a couple of days. This one took a over a week, mostly because we did not work on it every day.
Another obstacle--we used the kitchen table. It works great when we put together a puzzle quickly. If it takes longer...well, then things interfere with the puzzle assembly activity.
Our youngest finished the puzzle yesterday. As I cleaned it up in anticipation for a family gathering this morning, I joked we need a puzzle-putting-together room in our house. Wouldn't that be fantastic? An entire room dedicated to puzzles. I can almost see it. A table at the proper height allowing the family to sit (or stand...) comfortably with proper lighting to it won't hurt your eyes. Maybe a large TV with sports or Hallmark movies playing (or both...) and a fridge stocked with goodies. Yes, it could be glorious to behold, our little puzzle room.
Do we need a puzzle room? Of course not. Would we like a puzzle room? I'd like to give it a try. After all, a family that puzzles together, stays together.
Look it up--it's science.
