Puzzling
28 October 2005Callum is a ferocious jigsaw puzzle maniac. Now I know most kids his age are quite good at puzzles, but watching your child assemble a 25-piece puzzles in merely a couple of minutes is SCARY.
It’s like watching a kungfu zen master doing his thing. Or one of those possessed piano-playing child prodigies.
Anyway, today I bought Callum a 60-PIECE Thomas the Tank Engine puzzle. He giggled and bounced in his car seat all the way home, shaking the box and exploding with excitement.
Home. After 10 minutes and a bit of help from mum, the puzzle was done. Finished. Crickets chirped. And his silence was deafening. The toddler was not appeased. My husband suggested that next time I should throw ALL the jigsaw sets together just to see what he does with it.
