Puzzle Cube kits are part of the FVRL Playground – a collection of non-traditional lending items and in-library experiences that support STEAM learning (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math). Puzzle Cube kits are a welcome addition that sharpen spatial awareness, develop problem-solving skills, help improve memory, increase pattern recognition, and foster healthy fidgeting fun.
“This is an opportunity for all ages to try out a rewarding brain-sport,” says Heather Scoular, FVRL Director of Customer Experience. “It’s a come-as-you-are type of toy and learning tool. All experience levels can solve and enjoy puzzle cubes. They are an addictive pastime with infinite inspiration for cubing mastery. Best of all, they are free to try for anyone with a library card.”
