RE: Weekend-engagement topic week 29: Talkin' toys

I think we are all kids at heart, and toys are what really makes the world go round.I like my computer, I think it is one of the best toys ever invented. I get to see so many different places in the world through it.

Dream toy that does not exist as far as I know would be a wall sized puzzle. I imagine a smooth flat thin metal wall with a frame around it and then a puzzle with pieces the size of a 5000 count puzzle that would fill a full wall.

My wall that I would like to puzzlefize has two windows, so of course this would mean some left over pieces, so they would go on a windowless wall in frames. They would have to be magnetic puzzle pieces, and this would make putting the puzzle together a real challenge.

Sort:  

Talk about dreaming big! A wall-sized puzzle...It sounds like a legit idea although I'd imagine it to be displayed in some art gallery somewhere maybe, not in the suburbs. Nice imagination and I hope someday it becomes a reality however...A wall of magnets...You'd not want to be wearing a metal belt buckle or you could find yourself flying across the room buckle first and then slamming buckle first into the wall. That could be problematic.

Yeah, I didn't think of the magnetic attraction issue to well, but those little strip magnets are not that strong. I suppose the very last puzzle piece would be opposite polarity of all the other pieces and just simply refuse to stay in place.

Lol, all that work and then that last piece just refuses to cooperate...That last piece is 2020! 😂

Thank you for your engagement on this post, you have recieved ENGAGE tokens.

That would be quite a puzzle indeed. Years worth for me...

When I was a kid my folks used to have a puzzle going on a coffee table in the winter. At the extended care where my mom ended her days they had a sitting room that always had a puzzle going. Mom and I would sit there for an hour or two each day...

I liked puzzles but with a cat and no real puzzle table it is rather problematic to try and do a puzzle any more for me, but I did enjoy them as a kid and pre pet stage of life.

Well, I'm just certain that my mother never had a cat in her house. A couple of dogs, but 0 cats. So never a problem.

My first inlaws were bigtime puzzle people and had a cat. It seems it was never a problem with the puzzle, maybe a little cat sensitivity training? I honestly don't know, but don't remember the cat being a problem..

Wow, a wall sized 5K puzzle. Count me in. I love puzzles. The more difficult, the better, especially with lots of water the same color. Drives me bananas putting them together. As a teen, I would sit and finish a 1K in two days.

Thanks for sharing. I still have Niagra Falls 2500-piece in the box. Gosh darnit, Life gets in the way.
