I love jigsaw puzzles. It's a game that stirs the mind and it helps you analyze. It somewhat helps you think in a similar way with your everyday life. It makes you think and analyze about your decisions like the jigsaw puzzle.

When playing with jigsaw puzzles, where do you start? What are your techniques?

I always start with the border of the puzzle, because it's easier to pick those pieces out. And the other pieces, I often put on paper plates to seperate the portions of the puzzle. All the sky pieces might be on one plate, water pieces on another, etc.

Like joyjoy, I start with the corners and borders since they are easy to identify. I group the pieces of the same color or those that seem related together.

I start by trying to put together as many as pieces as possible regardless of where they are located in the puzzle, then I put the clusters together to finish up the puzzle.

I start with the border and then kind move things around into piles of pieces that match. It makes it a lot easier.
