Different Kinds Of Wooden Puzzle Game

By Eula Nichols


A large number of toys for children make all kinds of electronic noises and light up, but sometimes the tried and trusted favorites are best. Simple toys provide a brain workout without necessarily providing an overload of stimulation. Toys made of natural substances will not be full of toxic chemicals. A wooden puzzle game may be found that is suitable for a child of any age. A description of some of the most common types of toy follows.

A timeless puzzle, which involves fitting jigsaw pieces together so that they recreate a specific image, can easily take up hours of time. Puzzles for young kids are not as involved. A design might feature a wooden slab out of which shapes have been cut. To solve the challenge, the right shape must simply be slotted into the right groove in the slab. This is good to give to a toddler, as it assists in improving hand-eye coordination and keeps the brain active.

In addition to two-dimensional puzzles, toy-makers have also created three-dimensional puzzles that are entertaining and attractive. A toy in the form of an animal or an abstract polyhedron, which consists of interlocking parts that have to be pieced together, will provide hours of teasing problem-solving. As these toys require more brain power, they are better gift choices for older children.

Plain wood is a sensible choice of material for a toy, since the toy will last and wood damages the environment less than the emissions released during plastic's production. Parents who are concerned for the ongoing health of the environment.

Though simple puzzles are ideal for younger children, older kids get to play with more exciting toys. Games featuring towers of blocks, where a block has to be removed slowly without the entire tower crashing down, are good at developing patience and strategic thinking. These toys are also more sociable as they can be played by a whole group of friends or a family.

Some wooden puzzles use the format of old games that have long been providing enjoyment for children. The toy called 'Jacob's ladder' is one example. This toy comprises a series of blocks that are interconnected using lengths of ribbon. When the top hinge or block is swung down to touch the block beneath it, the illusion of the second block tumbling down the row to the bottom of the series is created.

An additional game that may be constructed using wood is The Tower of Hanoi. The person attempting to solve the puzzle is required to rearrange eight discs that are piled on a single wooden pole, arranged in sequence of sizes, with the largest disc at the bottom and the smallest at the top. These discs have to be placed in the same order on a pole on the right, and there is another pole between the first and the third. The difficult part is that discs may only be moved one at a time, and a disc can be moved only if it is placed on top of a larger (and not a smaller) disc.

The above toys are only some of the many types to choose between when you want a wooden puzzle game that will provide mental stimulation while developing important skills and capabilities. When you order a toy online, make sure that you choose one that is suitable for your child's age group.
