So today we are reviewing a PuzzleGlobe from New Leaf Press. When I first got it, my thoughts were - man... this is not what I asked to review. If I did - it was an accident. I thought - this small little box. This is going to be something we do not enjoy. But the kids eagerly asked to put it together. I thought - sigh... I don't want to help them with this right now. I can see the situation. They want to do it, they can't, I end up finishing it. But it was too late, they had laid eyes on it and were off.
I have to say - this was my biggest surprise! Since yesterday this little ball has been put together and taken apart and put back together 4 times! Alyssa twice and Tristan twice. My 9 and 6 year old LOVE IT!
This is a small globe that has the words “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Gen. 1:1” It comes with a little stand and it looks very nice. The pieces are sturdy plastic. They are all numbered and have arrows. Alyssa said that at first she had a rough time with it. Then she noticed the directions. And realized to put it together in a spiral. Once she got that she said it was a breeze.
It gets kinda tricky with the last few pieces but with a little concentration, a pen to get in the small spaces and help push the pieces a little - it is most definitely do-able.
We received this puzzle free for review from NewLeaf Press and were not required to give a positive review. Thank you NewLeaf!
