Color Wonder™ People Puzzles

With a friend, outline yourselves on Crayola Color Wonder™ Paper and color your tracings. Cut your art into a puzzle and pretend to be Humpty Dumpty. Can you put yourselves together again?

1. Lay out enough sheets of Crayola Color Wonder™ Paper, edge to edge, so that when you lay on it your whole body fits. Tape papers together on the back. Lie on the papers, very still, so a friend can make a Color Wonder Soft Sticks™ tracing all around your body. Make another tracing, this time your draw your friend.

2. Color in your tracings—any way you like. Add fun clothes! Draw facial features such as eyes, nose, mouth, ears, and hair. Fill in your background, too, to make the puzzle as hard or as easy as you like.

3. Cut your puzzles into several pieces with Crayola Scissors. Mix up the pieces and put yourselves back together again!

Jigsaw puzzles are named that because the pieces are cut with a jigsaw. The first one is attributed to an Englishman named John Spilsbury when in 1760, he thought that kids would learn their geography more easily by playing a game. He painted a map on wood and then cut out the pieces along the borders. Now puzzles can be found with up to 5,000 tiny pieces. Some puzzles must be solved by shape alone because all the pieces are the same color!
