- Safety Scissors
- Marker
- Optional: Exacto Knife, Ruler
Steps

Notes
- You can freestyle your designs if you don’t have a ruler handy.
- Scissors will work, but an exacto knife will make the pieces easier to cut out.
- You can use coins to add different sized interlocking parts. Just put the coin down and trace half of it to make the interlocking puzzle piece design.
- Make pieces larger and simpler, or smaller and more intricate to adjust the difficulty level.
- Store in a small plastic container or bag so you don’t lose any pieces.
- Try swapping puzzles and see who can finish theirs first!
