Early indications in
the history of jigsaw
puzzles are of puzzles
from European Map
Makers in the 1700s
who dissected maps.
These would have been
rudimentary Jigsaw
Puzzles as we know it
today.
Many believe John
Spilsbury, a London map
maker, was the person
who created the first
puzzle from a map of
Europe cut along country
boundary lines.

Kids Jigsaw Puzzles Awards - Parents Choice
Established in 1978, Parents’ Choice is the nation's oldest nonprofit guide to quality children's media and toys.
Quoting from their website:
Diana Huss Green established Parents’ Choice Foundation on the following beliefs:
- Reading is our children's key to the world's histories, literatures, arts and sciences
- Accomplishment is essential to self-esteem
- Learning requires discipline
The Foundation's mission is to provide parents with information to participate wisely in their children's learning outside the classroom.
Parents Choice mission is continue to adhere to the founding principles because:
- Children deserve material to sharpen young minds, not blunt them
Children learn most easily when they enjoy it
- Knowledge gives parents confidence to teach their children
The Foundation’s purpose is to search out and recommend products that help kids grow – imaginatively, physically, morally and mentally—fairly priced products that are fun, safe and socially sound.
The Parents’ Choice Awards™ Program
Identifying the best products for children of different ages, backgrounds, skills, and interests, the Parents’ Choice Awards are given to products that meet and exceed standards set by educators, scientists, performing artists, librarians, parents, and yes, kids themselves.
Fewer than 15% of those items submitted to the Parents’ Choice Awards program receive a commendation in one of the six award levels: Classic, Gold, Silver, Recommended, Approved, and Fun Stuff, underscoring the coveted and prestigious achievement of being honored with a commendation from the Parents’ Choice Awards program.
