How to play?
- Pick one of the pieces on the right.
- Tap the empty square in the garden where the piece fits.
- The puzzle is solved when all squares are filled; you can take back a piece you placed wrongly.
Skills it builds
- Spatial thinking: picturing whether a shape fits a gap
- Part–whole relationship
- Planning instead of trial and error
- Patience and focus
Tips for parents and teachers
- Fill the hardest spot first: corners and narrow gaps reduce the options.
- Ask "Where else could this piece fit?" and let your child find the answer.
- In the printable version, cutting out the pieces together and trying them at the table gives tactile support.

Using it in class
Solve it together on the interactive whiteboard as a 10–15 minute warm-up: ask students for guesses first, then let a volunteer make the move. The printable version works for learning stations and homework.
