THE LOVE FOR JIGSAW PUZZLES

Do you know how sometimes kids skip a generation and all the traits you, as parents didn’t inherit, your child does? This is exactly what has happened with Tee. She is best buddies with my Mother, which makes up for my lack of relationship with my own Mom I guess. Her Nana is her most favourite pal in the whole wide world. She is also her piggy bank – maybe that’s why. Actually, her Nana gives in to her all the time. Anything she wants. The moon? Sure…..

Tee has my Mother’s extreme patience with jigsaw puzzles. I am not a jigsaw puzzle person. But Tee can sit quietly and do her 100 piece jigsaw albeit between 1 to 3 sittings. She has two 100 piece jigsaw puzzles right now that she is happy to do over and over again. Such patience is beyond me.

A friend of mine has a kid who converses at the same level as Tee. Very intelligent kid. But when she heard that Tee did 100 piece jigsaws, she was flabbergasted. Her kid was only exposed to 4 piece jigsaws. I told her it wasn’t a big deal. If she placed a 100 piece jigsaw in front of her kid, he may be overwhelmed at first but sit and encourage him and after a few times, he will be a whiz.

I also think it is temperament. Whether the kid has an interest in jigsaws to start of with. For example, he was very good at opening bottles at the age of 20 months when Tee was nowhere near spinning the caps although she kept trying and trying. Kids develop at different paces. The most important thing to focus on is that your kid is happy. Expose them to everything but never, ever push. If your kid can’t do the stuff other kids can, SO WHAT? At the age of 6, 7 or 8…..they would have caught up. And just so you know, those who develop faster before the age of 6 are not necesarrily the winners in life. This is proven.
