Different Kinds 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.

Some wooden puzzles use the format of old games that have long been providing enjoyment for children. The toy called 'Jacob's ladder' is one example. This toy comprises a series of blocks that are interconnected using lengths of ribbon. When the top hinge or block is swung down to touch the block beneath it, the illusion of the second block tumbling down the row to the bottom of the series is created.

Another classic game sometimes made of wood that requires mental agility is The Tower of Hanoi. The person solving the puzzle has to move 8 discs stacked on a wooden pole in the order of largest to smallest across two other poles, by moving one disc at a time. Discs may be stacked on one another only if the bottom one is larger, and the aim is to recreate the first tower on the furthest pole (there are three poles).

Outlined are just a few of the many choices for the ideal wooden puzzle game. If you order a wood toy gift online, be sure that the item you obtain is suitable for the age of the recipient.
