Storing Jig Saw Puzzles

RE: Storing Jig Saw Puzzles Post by wdyjsu (245) | (05/04/2006) Contact I love that idea - where does everyone come up with such great ideas?! (I guess I don't think of things like this cuz I don't have kids yet. hehe) RE: Storing Jig Saw Puzzles Post by austin95mom (36) | (05/03/2006) Profile | Contact Another thing you can do with puzzles before you place them in the ziploc bag, label the back of each piece with a code. The code should also be placed on the back of the puzzle box that you placed inside the bag. The code can be a symbol, a letter, a number or a combination of these. The idea is that the code on the back of the puzzle pieces identifies which puzzle bag it goes into. I did this because my son had so many puzzles and this helped separate them if they got mixed together. Which by the way happened a lot.

I did it sort of out of necessity since the kids wrecked the boxes!

THe kids can see the pieces, and they learn to put things back in their place.

But, it makes it easier to store and we have taken them with us on our travels!!! Gives us something to do when camping or in our hotel room---much better family time than watching tv!!!
