Why is it important to build puzzles?
Puzzles develop fine motor skills as it requires the child to manipulate the pieces using their fingers. Peg puzzles help to develop children’s pincer grip as they hold the peg between two fingers. Puzzles further develop hand-eye coordination and problem solving skills critical for mathematics later in life. Spatial relation and the ability to focus are also skills developed while building puzzles.
When children build puzzles, they use their eyes to distinguish between shapes, images and forms on the pieces. This information is sent to the brain, to interpret and respond this process is called visual perception. This is the foundation of reading.
Puzzles build several aspects of visual perception such as:
- Visual memory– the ability to remember what is seen
- Visual discrimination– seeing similarities and differences in things
- Visual comprehension– making sense of what you see
- Perception of shapes
- Visual analysis and synthesis– seeing patterns and putting them together
- Visual closure– the ability to identify what an object is by seeing part of it (e.g. a piece of an eye on a puzzle piece)
