Jigazo

JIGAZO.
What am I talking about and what is Jigazo??
It's a very fun puzzle that I happened to come across at the store a while ago. If you're looking for a fun and unique Christmas gift, then maybe this is for you.


  • This puzzle is 300 pieces big.
  • Each piece can connect with any other piece.
  • All the pieces are varying shades of brown.
  • The puzzle can be made over and over again... and each time, your picture can be completely unique.
  • Unique?? That's right. This puzzle can look like anyone. ANYONE!

Don't believe me? Check out the pictures I took of the puzzle... And just to clarify, all these pictures were taken with the same 300 puzzle pieces....

Matthew

My sister, Fern
Hmmm... kinda looks like ME

Okay, I've done one of all my kids, and at the time, I didn't think to take pictures. Darn. Some pictures turn out better than others, but they all look great from a distance!
Anyways, you can also make pictures of Animals. There's a few that come with the program, like this one....

And, if you'd like to see a cool youtube video that explains how it's done, check out this...

Oh, and each puzzle takes an hour or two to put together.
A lot of fun to do with the family. Great activity for the upcoming Christmas holiday.

  1. Oh my gosh AMBER! I'm not sure the average Joe is going to be able to create the puzzles to look EXACTLY like the people they know.

    You are amazingly talented and it blows my mind every time I come over here. That one of you???? I can't believe it.

    Good grief.

    You didn't say where you got the puzzle though.

  3. Actually, these puzzles are VERY easy to put together. Even Matthew (5) could do it. It's not challenging, which is a nice change. You just have to pay attention to details. Oh, and for anyone interested... I've seen these online, at Walmart and Superstore. Though I will tell you that the prices I've seen vary widely (a 20 dollar price difference between some places). So, shop around. FYI, Superstore had the cheapest price.
