Nostalgic PastimesGreat British Jigsaws
Do you remember playing with jigsaw puzzles during your childhood? In my amily,we had a large jigsaw puzzle in a corner o the living room that would be completedover weeks by everyone in the amily. Although todays elaborate electronic homeentertainment systems can provide hours o excitement, there is still no match or thetraditional jigsaw puzzle which provides excellent educational value, relaxation andsocial conversation or everyone.
A lielong an o jigsaw puzzles with the eeling that there could be much better puzzlesin the market, Bristol resident John aylor nally decided to produce his own rangeo jigsaw puzzles and Great British Jigsaws was successully launched just beore lastChristmas.
Inspired by the landscapes, architecture and seasonal moods, these unique jigsawpuzzles are picturesque scenes o Britain taken by British photographers and proudlymade in Britain! Te current range o jigsaw puzzles depicting scenes rom the WestCountry and Wales are designed to reect these unique British characteristics; bringinginterest and pleasure to both seasoned puzzle makers and beginners. Also inspired by
the British sense o generosity, Great British Jigsaws will donate 50p to charity romevery puzzle sold.
John has selected 12 worthy charities to support that are either local or have a nationalprole with a local presence. John says, Tese charities need all the help they can getwith the excellent work they do and in our small way we wish to give them, with yourhelp, some extra unds.

Opt or natural and hypoallergenic products to use or your child. For babies and
inants, it would be best to choose ragrance-ree creams and lotions or their
sensitive and delicate skin to avoid irritation.
o prevent your childs lips rom cracking and chapping, apply lip balm regularly.
Tere are several child-sae lip balms available in the market today. Lip balms
ormulated with beeswax, shea butter, and other natural ingredients are best or
kids as they are non-toxic. Tey also contain emollients which help condition your
childs lips and prevent them rom soreness.
You can use a humidier inside your home. Tis prevents indoor air rom becoming
too dry caused by heating systems during winter. By using humidiers, indoor air
temperature can be regulated and can help a great deal in preventing your childsskin rom too much dryness which usually leads to itchiness and irritation.
Water-water-water! Always try to encourage your child to drink plenty o water
everyday! Te recommended eight glasses o water a day would do great to keep
your childs body and skin well-hydrated and healthy.
