We were given a wonderful floor-sized puzzle of America and Ethan LOVES it! We've done it a few times for 'school' and I decided to document it this time:)
I put together the edges for him and then he followed the 'map' (ie: the box) to figure out where to put each state!
He always starts with Texas; the 'boot' state as he refers to it and works his way east...
Checking his 'map' frequently to see where each state goes - I LOVE watching his brain process!
After he fills in the east coast Ethan moves over to the west coast - quite the system!
Finished with the west coast and filling in the mid-west...he saved Minnesota for last! (I'm sure it was pure coincidence though..)
Ethan with his completed puzzle! We pull this out every few weeks for school and talk about the states and the pictures on the states:)
OF COURSE if Ethan's doing a puzzle...Judah has to do one too:) Always wants to be like his older brother!
