Title: I'm looking for a race car puzzle pattern
Post by: APG (Al) on March 28, 2014, 08:06:51 am
Does anyone have a race car puzzle pattern that they would like to share.  It would be for a 2 year old so the pieces need to be on the large size.  Thanks in advance.

I have a 2 year old niece and her dexterity is very limited. You want to keep it simple.

Were you looking for something like this?

Something little snazzier (and a lot harder for a 2 year old):

or more like a simple jigsaw puzzle:

Frank & EIEIO,  Thanks for the help.  I did find the one on google images, after reading another post, and my wife said the same thing.  I'll look at the free patterns and also borrow yours.

Great pattern EIEIO.  Thanks for my copy.  I put it on my "to-do" list.

These are not my patterns - they were posted and popped up in a Google search for "race car puzzle" (or something close to that).

EIEIO,

I just finished making 3 copies of the race car that you posted.  A gal that my wife and I met a while ago at the local Panera asked if I could make her a race car puzzle for her 2 year old nephew.  I delivered it Friday morning and coincidentally the boys 2 year birthday was yesterday, Saturday.  I though just in time.

She asked how much, and I told her $125.00.  She then turns to Jane, my wife, and asked her the same question.  Well the end result was that I got a big hug, and I'm happy with the payment.

And by the way often when I make stuff like toys, puzzles, plaques, cutting boards, etc. I make extra copies.  They go into the closet in my office for future gifts.  Handmade items make great gifts.

Which one did you make? The Jigsaw looked about right for a 2-year old, but the top car looked like fun to make and right colorful.

I made the top car,  the one that is painted different colors.  Last report the little guy is having a ball with it.  Nothing better when giving a  hand made gift the recipient enjoys it.

I like that one and it's about the right age. Their dexterity builds pretty quickly at that age - better get started on the next one. :)
