This puzzle contains 500 extra-large pieces.
The completed puzzle measures 48 x 69cm, or approximately 19 x 27 inches.
Yes, the extra-large pieces make it very accessible for older children, though parental supervision is recommended for younger kids due to small parts.
The box lid serves as the primary reference image, as is standard with most House of Puzzles sets.
Yes, you can use standard jigsaw puzzle glue to seal the pieces if you wish to mount the scene on a wall.
Check the surrounding pieces for incorrect placement; often, a piece that looks like it fits is actually a misplaced neighbor.
Ensure you are working on a perfectly flat surface; even slight curves in the table can cause pieces to separate.
Carefully sweep your immediate work area, including under chairs and rugs, as the large pieces are prone to sliding off table edges.
To begin your puzzle, select a flat, stable surface that can be left undisturbed for several days. Begin by flipping all pieces over and grouping them by edge pieces and distinct color clusters, such as the village houses or the background greenery.
For care, avoid using liquids or cleaners on the puzzle surface as moisture can warp the cardboard material. If you intend to frame the puzzle, use a dedicated archival-quality puzzle glue and apply it thinly to the front surface, allowing it to dry completely for at least 24 hours before mounting.
