What Is a Puzzle Box?
Puzzle boxes are fun, often wooden boxes that can only be opened by completing a series of moves ranging in difficulty. The inside of a box puzzle usually contains a small gift as a reward for completing the puzzle. The concept of puzzle boxes evolved out of ornate jewelry boxes designed with secret compartments and hidden openings, first known to be popular around the Renaissance era. Bits and Pieces offers box puzzles for sale in a variety of sizes, shapes, colors, and difficulty levels, making it easy to find

What Is the Age Range for Puzzle Boxes?
The appropriate age for puzzle boxes varies because the difficulty level for completing them also varies. However, a box puzzle is best-suited for adults more often than not. The challenges involved in solving puzzle boxes (not to mention you must solve multiple sides as compared to one flat sheet) are a bit too difficult and require more time and attention than most children will have the patience and aptitude for. Bits and Pieces has lots of
gifts for kids, though, that suit a wide range of children's ages.
