Frequently asked questions about story puzzle

How do you play story puzzle?

Drag each piece onto its spot in the picture, or tap a piece and then tap where it goes. A piece that does not belong simply stays in the tray, so there is nothing to undo — and finishing the picture opens the story it came from.

What does story puzzle help kids practice?

Story puzzle builds visual attention and spatial reasoning, and it is a gentle way in to a reading passage: kids meet the picture first, get curious about it, and the finished puzzle hands them the story to read.
