Packabaga! is a unique puzzle invented by us about … packing bags! It’s themed around the summer holiday—packing your bags for travel—but can obviously be played and enjoyed at any time of the year.
It requires cutting several items once (2 pages), which you’ll then reuse for all the puzzles. Because you don’t write on the page, or destroy any part of it, the material is endlessly reusable!
It contains 30 puzzles. They all have the same simple core: you get a bag (a specific shape) and a list of items that should go inside. Your job is to find a way to place all the items in the bag (without overlap or exceeding the boundaries).
Most of the puzzles are just that. These are called “Level 1 puzzles”. They are completely textless and even playable by young pre-reader kids, practicing spatial reasoning and fine motor skills.
As a bonus, we also added “Level 2” and “Level 3” puzzles at the end. They add some fun twists to the formula, such as requirements like “the beach ball and the sunglasses MUST be next to each other”. Because of that, however, those higher difficulty puzzles require (rudimentary) reading and counting skills.
