A little about this puzzle

In a Christmas family story corner, an adult turns a large picture board toward a seated listener while its lower edge stays in the wooden story box's groove. A second child steadies a short foot attached beneath the box. Seen from slightly above, the room has a story table in the foreground, an upholstered bench to the left, and a low prop cabinet behind. A Christmas tree, wreath and snowy window complete the warm picture-book setting. The eight objects are Wooden box, Picture frame, Puppet, Bookmark, Notebook, Pencil, Blanket and Teddy bear. The wooden box is the story apparatus that supports the removable picture board. The puppet is a generic round-headed jointed wooden figure. Each target appears once in the main scene; the bottom icons are separate clues. Choose the Color or Line art image, use the picture clues to find each object, and keep the Answer key separate until you are ready to check. The three images can be printed or saved as PDF using your browser.
