Puzzles on the go!

Puzzles are a lot of fun and can be terrific educational tools. Children learn problem solving and strategic thinking as well as shape, color, and pattern recognition. Adults benefit from working on puzzles, too, and often find the most complicated versions to be the most relaxing. Working on a puzzle with others allows puzzlers from the youngest to the oldest to hone their cooperation and patience skills. Of course, no matter what your age may be, there is something especially satisfying when that final piece snaps into place.

As much fun as they can be, puzzles are not road-trip worthy. Even at home, those little pieces can get lost under the furniture, nibbled by puppies, and tend to fray at the edges over time. We all know about that frantic search for the one odd-shaped middle piece. Unfortunately, favorite puzzles end up disappointingly incomplete when that single piece cannot be found.

Happily, Visit Indiana offers an assortment of free and Hoosier-themed digital jigsaw puzzles that are quite tidy and ideal for all skill levels. They are fun diversions while sitting in a waiting area, and compact enough for the longest of road trips.
