Abstract

One aspect of the disclosed puzzle includes a puzzle frame and a plurality of puzzle pieces. The plurality of puzzle pieces may be associated with a particular color scheme. The particular color scheme associated with the plurality of puzzle pieces may be particularly chosen to force an individual to focus on the spatial characteristics of the puzzle frame and each of the plurality of puzzle pieces during puzzle assembly. This method challenges the way an individual has been trained to typically assemble puzzles, e.g., by requiring that an individual must analyze the shape of one or more puzzle pieces with respect to the corresponding space available within the puzzle frame as opposed to focusing primarily upon an attempt to match the images that are displayed on the front face of each puzzle piece. Accordingly, the disclosure may facilitate the development of enhanced spatial organization skills.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO PRIOR APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 655,298, filed Jun. 4, 2012, titled “ZZUPPLE,” the disclosure of which is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE[0002]1. Field of the Disclosure[0003]This disclosure is directed to a puzzle having puzzle pieces of a particular color scheme, and more particularly to a method of using the puzzle to facilitate the development of enhanced spatial organization skills.[0004]2. Related Art[0005]Generally, prior art puzzles may include a plurality of puzzle pieces having various shapes and sizes. A common feature of prior art puzzles is that each puzzle piece typically may have a variety of seemingly random color designs. However, when all of the puzzle pieces are combined, the combination of seemingly random colors may create a recognizable image.[0006]The practice of adding images onto puzz...
