puzzles played an important role in the way my parents raised me as a child. We would like to spend hours completing puzzles, and I learned as a child some of the great puzzles have lessons to offer.
I still remember my mother going to the store every few weeks for the purchase of puzzle game. We have chosen some puzzle fun with cartoon characters, but mainly we would have a puzzle or select foreign countries> Puzzle with images of cultures and ideas that were different from ours.
We would go home and spend time with the whole family, the composition of our new puzzle. How do you put the puzzle together at the end of the day, Dad would always ask me my day (this was the time of my day I looked at the day case) and what I was thinking of different things in the family and city. Mom would always teach usWhat we saw in the puzzle we were.
I remember putting together a puzzle that had a picture of a small wooden hut with an older man with a bundle of sticks on his back near his small wooden hut, a beautiful scene of mountains in the distance. Mom and dad told me all about Tibet, and the beautiful mountains of the area. He taught me how some people live differently in other countries. I remember asking why the man who looked like my grandfatherhad to work hard with their heavy sticks on their shoulders. We spent hours talking big about the world around us - all with the help of a simple puzzle.
Now watch my son just before tea when he sites TV for most of your days, I wonder if I can still find a lot of good places to buy puzzles as my son will enjoy as I enjoyed that the riddle of my childhood. I wonder if maybe I can teachlike my parents taught me - with puzzles as a tool to raise my son.
