Jingle-Jumbled Jigsaws

Equipment: Old Pictures or Christmas Cards

 

 

 

Space: Whole house, a single room or outside

How To Play: Cut up each Christmas card or image into an equal number of ‘puzzle’ pieces (eg a maximum of 10 pieces). On the back of each piece of the puzzle label with the same number. Hide the jigsaw pieces around the room, house or garden.

The game can be played with individual players or teams. Each Player or Team has a number corresponding to the puzzle number.

On the word “Go” the players must set out and collect all the pieces labelled with their team number and bring them back to the base. The first team to collect all their pieces and correctly assemble their puzzle is the winner.

Variations: Set up as a relay, one person from each team can go and collect a piece of their puzzle from a pile at the end of the room and bring it back to the team before the team then assembles the puzzle with the first team to complete the picture being the winner.
