My best bargain buy of the year (so far).........

[fannyannie]

here and DS3 with it here - he's really into jigsaws atm so I popped into the 99p shop to if they had any semi decent ones - found this one with 24 'puzzle' pieces, plus the extra animals, carousel and spinning wheel to add on.

This one was "Safari" - they had another one too (can't remember the theme) and I think I may have to go and buy it at the weekend as I thought they'd be, well, cheap and poor quality but they're actually pretty good for 99p.

oh well I thought it was pretty good (and DS1 and 2 are happily playing together with it now so they obviously thought so too)

not a big fan of jigsaws, too many unhappy memories of getting to almost the end, and realising a couple of pieces were missing

DD'd love it. DS would pull it apart as she tried to play with it though

so I guess you wouldn't like my latest challenge I've given myself then - a nice "easy" (not - it's bl**dy difficult with most of the pieces looking almost the same LOL) 1000 piece puzzle. Thankfully I have one of those 'jigrolls' so I work at it after 8pm when the older DS's are in bed, and roll it up safely during the day.

ive jsut brought the farmyard one of those for my dd whos 3 and she loves it

Gosh fannyannie your DS3 (as per original post) is a very big boy, and quite advanced to be doing that puzzle too.

• bozza I hadn't noticed that LOL.
