Are you a mentally active person? Do you like to solve puzzles but at the same time perform physical movements? 3D puzzles may be the answer for you.
Everyone is familiar with the standard jigsaw puzzle. Children start doing these puzzles before they learn to read. All ages enjoy piecing flat puzzle pieces together and the peak of excitement is putting in the last piece which completes the total picture.
After the jigsaw puzzle is completed it may be broken up, put back into its original box, or opened another day in the future for hours of entertainment. These puzzles may also be glued and used as wall hangings.
A new upgrade to the jigsaw puzzle is the 3D creations. Castles, animals, characters, and many other categories are available for our many interests. The cardboard pieces are locked into place allowing the puzzle to expand upward, sideways, and lengthwise as it is being assembled. Some creations are stationary while others are mechanical. After assembly these creations may be used for decorations, collectibles, play time, or showcased.
