Jigsaw Puzzles – Past and Present

The first jigsaw puzzle was created by a mapmaker from London by the name of John Spilsbury. He made a map on a piece of wood and cut it into several pieces, as a means to teach his geography class. After a while, this “broken map” became famous with his colleagues who then used the same technique for their own classes.

Today, jigsaws are made from durable cardboard materials that are light and kid friendly.
