I'm always on the lookout for different styles of jigsaw puzzles, and will often buy ones that differ from the usual. These Japanese Tenyo puzzles are quite different, in that the pieces are made of a non-opaque thin plastic- making the 'stain-glass' look more authentic. This puzzle was quite enjoyable and reasonably quick to do. The colours are vibrant and the pieces fit together well, actually clicking into place. When the puzzle is complete, it's possible to lift it up without everything falling apart. There are many other Disney characters in this series, and they'd make the perfect little gift for a Disney-loving, jigsaw puzzle fan.

Colorful Doors

Brand: Puzzlebug
Pieces: 500
Size: 46cm x 28cm
Product Code: N/A

This puzzle was bright, fun and relatively quick to do. It was also very easy to separate into sections (because of the picture and because of the varying colours), which meant that it could easily be completed in stages.
Who would have thought that photos of 10 different doorways could keep you entertained?

World In Words

This is a cool take on the usual world map design, with text used to 'illustrate' each of the countries. The colours used are bright and cheerful and stand out nicely in front of the beige background. 

If you're familiar with where most places in the world are (or at least have some idea of, approximately, where they are near) then this puzzle shouldn't be too much of a challenge, and you probably won't need to use the box as a reference very much. If geography is not your forte, I suggest checking the box lid every now and then, but you shouldn't have too much trouble. 

Once you find similar colours and can piece together the names of the countries, the puzzle comes together pretty quickly.

This puzzle is fun, educational, and would look great framed on a wall.

Below is a close-up of Europe, and surrounding countries, just to show how each of the countries are 'represented' in the design.
