Puzzles have been a big mess in this house. Pieces were everywhere. Baby bug could not work a puzzle because she could not find the pieces for the puzzle she wanted. I knew id we were ever going to be productive with the puzzles I had to get these under control.
I started by working the puzzles. I was able to find most of the pieces.
Next I took the pieces and put them in a zip lock bag. I numbered both the bag and the board with the same number with a sharpie.
Here is the finished product a basket full of puzzle boards and pieces all organized together in baggies. Now when it is puzzle time I can give baby bug one bag and one puzzle board and she will be all set to work on them.
Linky Parties I participate in.

What a great idea for puzzle storage, I love it! Have a great week!!
ReplyDeletemama of many blessings
That is such a good idea for puzzle storage. I currently have our puzzles on a shelf in the closet and I only allow the kids to have access to one puzzle at a time...that system is working well but sometimes I feel like they aren't able to work the puzzles as often as they might with another method. Thanks for sharing such a great idea. :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love the idea of putting the pieces in the baggies. We only have a couple puzzles and some of them I have up high for "special" toys. So far that works, but we'll see as we accumulate more. THe baggie is super!
