1️⃣ DO IT TOGETHER (at first)
Talk about colors, shapes, what you see.
Language development bonus!
2️⃣ LET THEM STRUGGLE (a little)
Resist the urge to immediately help.
Problem-solving happens in the struggle.
3️⃣ CELEBRATE COMPLETION
Pride in accomplishment = confidence = willing to try
harder things.
4️⃣ DISPLAY THEIR WORK
That's why our puzzles stick on fridges!
Visible achievement = internal motivation.
