July 22, 2004 There is nothing like looking at the picture of a 1000 piece puzzle box, ready to be opened and the pieces dumped out onto a card table. The anticipation, the longing for hours of frustration and the fun of finishing. Puzzles are a form of entertainment, over looked by many. People like puzzles but some have found, like myself, that time to put one together is not easy to come by. I have a solution, I placed the card table in the living room infront of the Television. Now, my husband, child and I can enjoy putting the pieces together. We watch the evening news and place one peice every five minutes into the frame that was put together first. Like many who enjoy eating in front of the Television, now my family is enjoying time together wathing the Television and putting the puzzle together. Puzzles are also cheaper than some toys: such as, video games, dolls, and some action figures. Puzzles are a great gift. Giving a puzzle means you think the person is quite intelligent. Everyone should complete one puzzle per year. Putting a puzzle together gives a sence of accomplishment. A puzzle is a way of tesing the brain with matching patterns.
