These 16 colourful and amusing puzzles will help your Youngstar to understand the concept of opposites and encourage matching skills.
The two piece puzzles introduce commonly used words and the pictures drawn from the child’s own experience to stimulate discussion and encourage language development.
Only the correct pieces fit together.
Some suggestions for using Opposite Puzzles with your Youngstar are:
-
Start with a small number of puzzles and match the pairs of opposites.
-
Discuss the differences in the pictures and introduce the words.
-
Encourage your Youngstar to look for detail in the pictures, make comparisons and match the pairs then repeat the words.
-
Place half of each puzzle on the floor in front of your child one at a time.
Read out the opposite word and see if your Youngstar can find the correct piece to complete the puzzle.
-
With practice, your child will be able to match the puzzles independently.
