Are Miniature Wooden Jigsaw Puzzles Fun to Work?

Posted on | October 24, 2009 | No Comments

Puzlet Gems are very fun to work! Certainly miniature puzzles and pieces present a unique challenge to puzzlers, but nothing too difficult. Our customers and reviewers have included senior citizens, as well as pre-teen children. All ages agree that Puzlets are highly workable and very enjoyable so long as they are assembled on a suede, or suede-like surface. This prevents the miniature puzzle pieces from sliding around as you try to fit them.

The average Puzlet Gem contains 90+/- pieces and takes about an hour and a half to assemble on the first try. Just as with the antique and vintage puzzles of times past, wooden Puzlets come without guide pictures.

Something else we highly recommend for making assembly enjoyable is to raise your work surface. Puzlet pieces are easier to match if you’re viewing them close-up, but you don’t want to be stooped over while assembling. A big book, or a weighted shoe box works nicely.
