And shows how interesting math can be to young children.

Puzzles are great. We just introduced them to the infants.

Just now introducing my infants to puzzles. So far so good. We use the puzzles with the knob on them so the infants can pick the pieces up.

This is a good example for a teacher to hush and let the magic of a little one’s determination and joy of learning its thing.

My daycare kids love puzzles and building things. They are always so hapoy with themselves when they master the task.

However, they never really use it like it should be used but it is entertaining to watch them do their own thing with it.
