A PUZZLE FOR SENIORS ON VACATION!!

Let’s face it. Anytime you take a trip, your schedule changes; and,  old people love schedules.

With family, you need something everyone can concentrate on and do together; without controversy.

Thus, I suggest a puzzle. In addition to the puzzle, you need a grandchild who will be an expert at identifying pieces and patterns.

The practicalities. Get your puzzle at a thrift store. It is better to pay a dollar, than $30. Check the bookcase. People frequently leave puzzles.

You need a place to put the puzzle together. Most vacation rentals don’t have puzzle space; and, if you use the dining table you run into meal problems – which will stress some out.

The solution is simple. Go to Home Depot or Lowes and look for a sheet of plywood or styrofoam a bit larger than the puzzle. Look on the cover of the puzzle box for final dimensions.

Then you can put the puzzle together on the sheet on a coffee table, dining table, or two chairs, etc. You can move it for meals or other events.

Remember to tell your grandchild that he/she can not stay up all night working on the puzzle.

Leave the puzzle and the board for the next renter.

THINK OLD!
