Description: Practicing concentration is one of the best benefits of puzzles for toddlers. A puzzle can give your child the opportunity to work on a single task for a long period of time uninterrupted. The muscles in your toddler's hands need a lot of practice to hold and move small objects — like puzzle pieces! Pegged puzzles are recommended to help build the fine motor skills that they’ll use later at school like holding a pencil or paintbrush. Your child will need to use a pincer grip to pick up the puzzle pieces and put them in the right spot. Solving a puzzle by yourself is extremely satisfying… all the pieces have come together to create a pretty picture, and all the messy puzzle pieces are gone! Like you, your child will get a major boost of confidence and self-esteem when they finally finish that challenging puzzle they’ve been working on!
