- They have developed problem-solving skills by figuring out how the puzzle pieces fit together to complete the picture.
- The activity helped them understand basic counting and number recognition as some puzzles may have numbered pieces, and they had to arrange them in order.
After the child finishing a puzzle, it would be beneficial to introduce more complex jigsaw puzzles with varying levels of difficulty to continue challenging their problem-solving and spatial reasoning skills. Additionally, incorporating puzzles with mathematical symbols or operations can build on their number recognition and basic mathematical concepts.
