It was fun to do, cute but not very difficult.

Excellent - love your puzzles -
Astonishing!!
Of all the 20 Sts I have now, this is my second best (the first being Carnival). I'd like not to be misunderstood because the remaining 18 have also helped me experience some unforgettable moments as a wooden jigsaw puzzler of 11 years. However, this one is the most surprising one of all. There's no need any more to tell about the ingenuity and quality of the pieces, the end product, or to sum up, the whole experience. Just begin with this one, or if you like, with any other St - You'll understand it. I love Stumpcraft, simple simply..

I bought this puzzle because the image itself reminds me of well-illustrated kids' books from the 1970s. But then I was even more delighted to complete the puzzle. I enjoy all of Stumpcraft's puzzles and redo them often. Of all of them, this one ranks at the top (of the ones I have tried so far) - mostly because I loved the school and playground themed puzzle pieces and the inter-connectivity of the themed pieces.
