Sandra had never done a jigsaw puzzle before, and I thought it would be fun to do one together, so I gave her one for Christmas. She loves dogs and her favourite flower is the sunflower, so I was delighted to find a 1000 piece puzzle (a good starting size) with a puppy sitting next to a pot of sunflowers.

As with most activities that Sandra is new to, she took a bit of time to find her way through the process, but quickly got the border sorted out, and became faster and more accurate as each day went by. I was going to let her finish the last section by herself, but she insisted on taking turns to find a piece, and finally it’s done. Now we need to find a picture frame so we can hang it on the wall.
