Various Types Of Wooden Puzzle Game

By Eula Nichols


So many children's toys are likes miniature beeping and talking light shows, and these might overstimulate sensitive kids. Sometimes old-fashioned playthings are best, and toys created using simple wood are ideal, and less likely to contain toxic colors or synthetic substances. There are many varieties of wooden puzzle game. Descriptions of some of the most common follow.

An old-fashioned jigsaw puzzle, which requires a person to match pieces together to complete an intricate picture, could take hours and even days to finish. Puzzles for kids are not as demanding, and might comprise a slab of wood with differing shapes cut out. Finishing such a puzzle simply involves working out which cutout goes in which matching slot in the wood. Although simple, this is an ideal gift for toddlers, as it assists in building healthy motor control while also stimulating the mind.

Although a standard puzzle is 2D, creative toy manufacturers also produce sculptural 3D designs that are not only fun but beautiful to look at as well. A toy shaped to resemble an animal might be pieced together to create a whole-looking object. Since these toys are more complicated, they are best given to older boys and girls.

Natural wood is a good choice of material for toys as it lasts well and is also less damaging to the environment than the production of plastic. Many parents who are environmentally conscious prefer wooden toys for this reason.

Older children are able to enjoy more advanced designs. A game consisting of a tower of carefully balanced blocks, where blocks have to be removed and placed on top without the tower falling, improves patience and strategic planning. A toy like this is great for social occasions with friends or family members.

Wooden puzzles often recreate the much-loved classics that have been entertaining young people for generations. 'Jacob's ladder' is one such classic, an optical illusion that provides endless puzzlement. This toy features a row of blocks that are hinged through connecting ribbons. When the top block in the row is swung down so that it's face touches the following block, it appears to the eye that this block tumbles down, due to the way the ribbons are attached.

Another favorite that is often made of wood is The Tower of Hanoi. The person who attempts to solve the puzzle needs to move eight discs (which are stacked on a pole in the order of largest to smallest, ascending) to a pole two spaces away. The same tower must be reproduced, with the same sequence of disc sizes. There are two catches - discs may only be moved one at a time and small discs may be stacked atop of larger discs, but not the other way round.

The above toys are only some of the many types to choose between when you want a wooden puzzle game that will provide mental stimulation while developing important skills and capabilities. When you order a toy online, make sure that you choose one that is suitable for your child's age group.
