Win a Europe atlas and jigsaw

To celebrate having my blog rebranded and say hello to new readers, I thought I would run a giveaway. For those of you that are new to my site, this blog came out from my experiences trying to entertain my small humans during the school holidays. Penelope is seven and Freddie is three and they love days out, adventures, new tastes and exciting ideas.

As a family spilt between New Zealand and the UK we travel a lot, but budgets and work don’t always allow us the time or money to see the world, so this blog is all about our ideas for the stay at home holidays. We have invented a system where we travel the world while staying at home, one recipe, experience or restaurant at a time.

Usborne Europe atlas and jigsaw

I am giving away a Europe atlas and jigsaw to one lucky winner.

Take a tour of Europe with this entertaining picture atlas and 300-piece jigsaw, with hundreds of animals, landmarks and attractions to spot. The sturdy box contains a vividly illustrated jigsaw of a map of Europe, plus a 32-page atlas showing each country with towns and cities, rivers, flags and other details, and internet links to find out more.

Jigsaw puzzles are great for children, helping to develop and refine a child’s fine motor skills.  In order to play with a jigsaw puzzle, children need to pick up, pinch and hold pieces, move them around and manipulate them into the correct slots. Completing a jigsaw puzzle successfully can’t be cheated so your child needs to use critical thinking, reasoning skills and problem solving. By working together as a family, a child is practising valuable life skills, such as communication, sharing, turn taking, allocating tasks in order to succeed, and lending support to their team member. Above all, doing a jigsaw is fun and gives tremendous satisfaction once completed!

For your chance to win, use the app below. Good luck!
