On the Ninth Day of Christmas...9 Puzzle Block Patterns


Have you seen those wooden puzzle blocks in various geometric shapes? They have always looked fun to me.  I was about to embark upon making some cool designs and patterns for my girls when I came across these on the PreKinders website.


I printed off 9 different designs and laminated them.  Unlaminated things like this last about 5 seconds in our house before being ripped or eaten.  Now, since we don't have any of the wooden block shape sets, I decided that I would make some.


I had a stack of foam sheets that I used to cut the shapes out. I did this by hand but it went pretty fast. 


These will still probably have some teeth marks in them by days end but I can always hope that they survive.


I can't believe it is day 10 tomorrow! This month is flying by already.

  1. This is the idea I had this morning to do for kids too as son is unsure of shapes and colour. I know it's a while ago since you posted but wondered if they had survived and what kind of size did you make the shapes?
