Three weeks ago Bentley went to the toy store with his mom and he picked out a 300 piece puzzle. Kara and the clerk at the store tried to talk him out of it. 300 pieces? (I don't know that I would bought him a 300 piece puzzle and I'm his biggest puzzle fan.) B told the clerk he could do it because he was good at puzzles. He is. There's no debating that. Kara decided to use the puzzle as a bribe. She told him that if she slept in his bed all night for five nights, he could have the puzzle. He did. (Then he went back to invading other beds.)
300 pieces is a lot of work, so Kara and he worked together. (I was out-of-town or I would have helped him, too.) It only took them a few days. Bentley wanted to finish it sooner, but his mom gets distracted by other things...making meals, cleaning the kitchen, reading books to Viva and Jake, etc.
This is his 100 piece dinosaur puzzle. Although B loves puzzles, he refuses to put together the 100 piece glittery, pink unicorn puzzle I got on sale at Borders. Dinosaurs are cool. Pink unicorns are not. Even for a puzzle aficionado theme matters.
This is B's new 300 piece dinosaur puzzle. Can you do 300 piece jigsaw puzzles?
