This jigsaw depicts several photos of the beautiful Hampton Court Palace, merges together to make a really visually interesting picture, and an enjoyable puzzle to solve.

As regular readers know, I love a good jigsaw. I find them challenging yet relaxing, and putting that final piece into place is oh so satisfying! Ravensburger sent me this funny Horsing Around jigsaw, the first in a new series of Selfies jigsaws, poking fun at the selfie trend that is so popular.
Georgie & Lydia both seem to have inherited my love of jigsaws, and really love these wooden jigsaw puzzles that Wentworth surprised us with a few months ago.
The first in Ravensburger’s new Haven series, this Craft Shed jigsaw is just lovely. I want a craft shed just like the one pictured in the jigsaw – a calm, cosy corner just to myself with a gorgeous view out onto a garden!
I love doing jigsaw puzzles – they are so relaxing and satisfying to complete, and it is something I love to do in the evenings. A screen free activity that gives me a bit of “me time” and chills me out.
This gift set from Parragon Books includes both a storybook and a double sided jigsaw. The illustrations are really fun, with bright colours and amusing cartoon animals. The book is a counting book, going up from one to ten, with different species of animals on each page, that have escaped from the zoo.
One of my most enjoyable hobbies is jigsaw puzzles. In this modern world I quite often do jigsaws on my iPad but this is something that technology just can’t ever replicate well enough for me. A well made jigsaw is a true delight and this puzzle definitely ticks that box.
This 3D puzzle is a really attractive design; bringing together the joy of Disney, the romance of Paris and the Eiffel Tower, and the relationship between Mickey & Minnie. I love the colours, it really does look like the tower has been lit up with celebratory designs of Mickey & Minnie; it has been very well done.
I love to solve jigsaw puzzles in my (limited!) spare time, although I hadn’t done a 3D puzzle since I was a teenager before putting together this mini Taj Mahal. How things have changed! Last time I did a 3D puzzle it was a comparatively huge structure made from thick foam pieces that fell apart a bit too easily while you were trying to put the thing together.
This puzzle is made from strong plastic pieces, some of which are hinged or curved to form the building’s rounded shape and corners. There are also various plastic components that are used to clip the different sections of jigsaw pieces together to create the full building.
