Candy Puzzle by B. Dazzle ($9.90 on Amazon.com)
Adults and seniors love these made in America puzzles at least as much as do children, teenagers and college students. These puzzles teach patience, perseverance, fine motor skills and critical thinking skills and help maintain mental agility in older persons, while providing stimulating entertainment as either a solitaire game or a cooperative activity. Each puzzle package includes an interpretive panel of fascinating facts on the subject of the puzzle, as well as a trivia question and hidden answer, all packaged in a unique and handy resealable clear vinyl pouch which can be collected and stored easily in a standard 3-ring binder. Arrange the nine colorful 4” by 4” pieces into a 12” by 12” square to match the pieces’ edges and form a completed picture in every direction.
Ages: 4+
Cognitive skills: visual processing, attention
