These seven puzzles are appropriate for the 1.5 to 6 year-old child. They encourage your child to participate more fully in church by providing them the basic items seen during baptism.
By using these puzzles, objects are isolated and the young child can focus on the shape and nomenclature for each individual item. You paint them to meet the specifications of your denomination and church. If you need a custom design, reach out and let's talk about what your church needs.
The child can trace the pieces as one would in a traditional Montessori lesson. They can uses them for matching work with either the images or actual items.
Extensions:
One to one matching altar parts to puzzle pieces.
One to one matching puzzle pieces to outline of the piece.
Tracing to make a poster or book.
Pin pushing.
