Who would love this: Any kids & puzzle lovers (especially one that LOVES Christmas!) 

Kaddo (a gift imprint from Quarto) has recently launched a series of enchanting puzzles. Today, I would love to share about this “Cat Family Christmas - Lift The Flap Puzzle” with you. 😊 🎄 

Why I love ❤️ it: 

(1) Unique Lift The Flap Puzzle With 12 Surprise Windows

This is a unique 76-piece “lift-the-flap” puzzle with 12 hidden surprise windows to explore. We had an awesome time piecing the puzzle together and discovering the charming Christmas preparation scenes: - gorgeous Christmas tree adorned with baubles and fairy lights, the cheeky moment of having a peek at a Christmas gift, knitted stockings on garland-draped mantel, gingerbread man and other delightful cookies, hanging ornaments, Christmas tree star topper, and more! But the most special part is, undoubtedly, the joy of revealing the 12 miniature scenes on activities done by the cat family leading up to Christmas; From family visiting, last minute shopping, carol singing, greeting card making, to the essential Christmas baking and decorating! I also really love the size of the puzzle (33 x 33 cm) that fits just neatly on a standard size table. 

(2) A Picture Book About Counting Down From 12 Days Before Christmas 

I love the 28-page, illustrated booklet that tells the adorable story on how the Cat Family getting ready for the holiday season, counting down from 12 days before Christmas. We read about the tradition of making pomander oranges, putting up wreath, baking Christmas cake infused with flavoursome spices, writing letters to Santa (asking nicely for something from the elves’ workshop), singing songs of good tidings, harvesting for Christmas feast, and so much more! The imagery is cute, and the story of full of cheerful details! 

(3) Sustainable Christmas-Theme Activity Ideas Included 

I love the sustainable “activity ideas” included on each page, such as using simple materials to make pomander oranges (oranges, red ribbon, toothpick, cloves), using pretzels to make reindeer antlers for baking decoration, menu planning (roast potatoes, Brussel sprouts, butters carrots), recipe of making bath salts (Epsom salt, coarse sea salt, baking soda, essential oil) etc. 

(4) Sturdy & Good Quality Puzzle Box & Packaging 

I love the sturdy and very lovely puzzle box, completes with a green festive-feel paper bag to keep all the puzzle pieces neatly.
