Another one of my son Cole’s favorite puzzles is this adorable 63 piece puzzle of Olaf dressed in a rather cute, wine colored “Christmas Tree Sweater”. I cannot count the number of times we have assembled this one together, and Cole has even done it several times all on his own. He and Derek both loved the movie Frozen, and also really liked seeing the recently released Frozen II. The quality of this one is really nice, and because I…
Children’s 24 piece Scooby Doo puzzle.
One of Derek’s holiday gifts this year was a puzzle. I will admit, I did have an ulterior motive for getting this for him – and I am sure you have no idea what that might be, right?! ? Basically, he loves the movie but has almost zero interest in doing puzzles and I have zero interest in the movie, but…well, you see where I am going with this. HEE HEE So when I saw this cute little 300 piece…
When I started this cute Christmas set, I had intended to do a write up for one puzzle per day on the blog for 12 days straight. As usual, this Puzzle Momma got bogged down with real life events due to the holidays and our travel plans to Atlanta. Now Christmas is officially behind us and I am trying to play catch up. Therefore, I will group days 8 through 12 into one longer post. Day 8 was probably my…
This puzzle is very cutesy. Until my friend Stacey pointed it out I never thought about it, but she is right. Most Christmas images are of a very similar type — Santa, a fireplace, lots of wrapped and unwrapped presents strewn about, and is almost sickningly sweet. It made me think of what I like in a Christmas image and I realized I do prefer ones that are a little bit different too and not always the typical ones. I…
Day # 6’s puzzle was tougher than I thought it would be! I loved the image but felt myself struggling just a little bit with the three tires on the car. I could not for the life of me figure out one of the pieces. As it turned out, it was a duplicate piece! This is the first time I have ever had a puzzle with an extra piece. Plenty of times I have been missing one or two, but…
This puzzle was fun and not overly challenging. Its very sweet and cute. For some reason that I cannot explain, the image reminds me of a care bear. I am envisioning one I used to see as a child– I think it might have been a rainbow care bear? I am really not sure. I just know every time I look at the puzzle all I see in my mind are those bears. LOL So now I am on to…
I love snowman puzzles! They are one of my most favorite puzzle themes. They always have such cute faces and colorful clothing. They just make me happy. They do remind me a bit of my childhood growing up in a wintery area of northern California. I usually made a snownan at least once a year. This is the 4th puzzle I have completed in this set. So far each one has been fun. Of course I have my favorites and…
I enjoyed Day’s 3 puzzle better than Day 2, but not quite as much as Day 1. It is a cute penguin and that is one of my family nicknames. My brother started calling me that when I was a little girl – presumably because my name is Penny, but I dont really know why other than that. LOL. Guess I should ask my brother at some point. I used to call him bubby as I guess I could not…
Day 2’s puzzle image was definitely a bit more challenging than Day 1. The colors are darker and because I assembled this one at night, I found it a little more difficult to finish than the cute Santa from the day before. This image reminds me of my childhood in that I ALWAYS wanted to check the mail. I dreamed of opening the box and finding small packages like these hidden inside just waiting for me to open the door….
