SEQUENCING PUZZLES

Sequencing puzzles are a fantastic way for parents to help their toddlers get ready for preschool while having loads of fun. By introducing them early to the concept and process of sequencing, kids can learn problem solving skills that develop critical thinking ability – all with just one puzzle! Sequences provide endless possibilities so they could be used as an educational tool or simply something enjoyable to do with your child. It’s no wonder why this activity is making its mark in homes across the world.

What are Sequencing Puzzles?

Sequencing puzzles are educational tools designed to help young children learn logical reasoning skills by arranging pieces in order. The pieces usually contain numbers, shapes, colors, or images that must follow a specific pattern to complete the puzzle. They help kids differentiate between objects and recognize patterns, which is an essential skill for problem-solving.

What are the Different Kinds of Sequencing Puzzles?

A sequencing puzzle is a type of puzzle that requires the solver to determine the order in which a series of events occurred.

There are three different types of sequencing puzzles:

  • Timeline puzzles, where the solver must determine the order in which events occurred on a timeline.
  • Sequence puzzles, where the solver must determine what came first, second, third and so on.
  • Number puzzles, where the solver must find out what number is in each column and then put them in ascending or descending order.

Benefits of Sequencing Puzzles

There are many benefits to doing these puzzles, some of which include:

  • Improve problem solving skills.
  • Strengthening visual discrimination skills
  • Building Motor skills
  • Honing hand-eye coordination
  • Prepare for preschool or kindergarten by working on early math concepts such as numbers and patterns
  • Build critical thinking skills by figuring out how the pieces fit together.


How to Use Sequencing Puzzles with Toddlers


These puzzles can be used in a variety of ways, depending on your child’s age and interests. For younger children, you can use them to work on number recognition and counting. For older children, you can use them to work on patterns or shapes. You can also use them to work on fine motor skills by having your child place the pieces in the correct order using their fingers. Here are some ideas to get you started:

  1. Number Recognition and Counting – Start with a simple 3-piece puzzle and have your child put the numbers in order from 1-3. As they get more advanced, you can move up to a 5-piece or even 10-piece puzzle. You can also have them count out loud as they place each piece in order.
  2. Patterns – Look for puzzles that have patterns such as colors or shapes. You can have your child identify the pattern as they put the pieces in order.
  3. Storytelling – A  sequencing puzzle is similar to a storyboard. They help in teaching young children the right sequence of an event or activity, such as what happened first, next, and last in the story. Lifecycles can also be covered with the help of these puzzles (butterfly, frog, and pumpkin).

A logician went on vacation to an island. There were two different tribes that lived on the island. One tribe always told the truth and one tribe always lied. When he reaches to a fork in the road, he must ask a local person which way to go to reach the village. The logician has no way of knowing if the person is telling the truth or lying. He pause for a bit, then asks only one question. He knows which path to take based on the response.

What question does he ask?
