If you have small children or animals who may be interested in the assembly process or the colored puzzle pieces, make sure that during the assembly process they do not have access to the place where you assemble it.
Stages of collecting a puzzle
The first step in the puzzle is to sort all the pieces by color and separate the pieces that are the outermost in the puzzle. It is quite simple to recognize them: such a piece has one side even, if there are two such sides, then this is a corner. Comparing them with the picture, you can already find four pieces of their rightful place. Further, within the meaning, collect the "frame" from the extreme pieces.
Proceed with the puzzle from any visible piece. It can be a sailboat, if the picture shows a seascape, an animal framed by greenery, a person in the interior, and so on. It is advisable to start at a corner or edge.
Having finished the main element, you can start assembling the background or monochrome pattern. Such pieces will have to be selected for the slightest deviations in color or shape.
