ABSTRACT:
A method for playing an outdoor recreational game provided in which puzzle pieces are formed from a flat sheet of foam plastic material having end edges which extend in alternating protrusions and recesses for joining together to interlock the puzzle pieces according to a predetermined arrangement. The puzzle pieces are laminated with a first graphic design disposed on a front side of the puzzle pieces for providing a guide for assembling the puzzle pieces according to the predetermined arrangement. An alternate graphic design is provided on a back side of the puzzle pieces for providing an alternate means to the first graphic design for guiding assembly of the puzzle pieces. The puzzle pieces are adapted for outdoor assembly to provide use as an outdoor recreational game. Further, the interlocking puzzle pieces are together sized to require that a player assembling the puzzle pieces move from a first position to a second position, which is distal to the first position, for fully assembling the puzzle pieces when the jigsaw puzzle is assembled at a stationary reference position.
