Our Puzzle Swap
|
Have some fun and keep your brain active! Puzzlers know how to do both!
KCIC has a puzzle exchange. Take a puzzle 🧩, bring a puzzle 🧩 to share with others. Jane R. has presently set up puzzles for exchange, on shelves, at the back of the main hall. Puzzles have been put into zip loc bags (indicated by a dot & star sticker on the outside of each box), so pieces don’t get lost. Puzzles are grouped by number of pieces (e.g. 100, 300, 500, 1000). Jane will regularly check the puzzles to make sure, that ones coming in from members, have zip loc bags. Have a great time, puzzlers! |
