Puzzle Pockets


I never know what to do with puzzle pieces. You can't just throw the puzzle in the toy box because all of the pieces will get lost, and all of the pieces get all mixed up, it drives me crazy. So today I made pockets on the backs of my puzzles, easy and best of all the puzzle pieces stay right in the back and not scattered in toy box. And my son loves putting them in and taking them out. They are easy to make, cut a fleece square (or whatever fabric you want) the size you want, cut out a flap, sew on velcro, and hot glue it in place on your puzzle back. Just make sure you make the opening narrower than the bottom of the pocket, so that it leaves some room for stuffing in the pieces. :)

You are a genius. I am so going to use this idea. I have stepped on a couple of puzzle pieces and put them up because I felt like they were just going to get lost. NOT ANYMORE. Thanks!

You are so smart! I love this. Now I can keep some of my kiddo's things organized. We have cubbies, we have drawstring bags, we have messes:). I guess that is what I get for having my two little sweethearts share a room. They are lovely little ones, but they can be messy tornados. Thank you for helping.
