What are incomplete puzzles?

An incomplete puzzle is like having only some pieces of your favorite picture, you can’t see the whole image yet.

Imagine you have a puzzle of your favorite cartoon character. A full puzzle has all its pieces, every corner, every color. But if it's incomplete, that means someone took away some of the pieces. You might only have the head or just one arm. It’s like having a cookie with some bites taken out, you can still recognize it, but it doesn’t look quite right yet.

What makes a puzzle incomplete?

Sometimes puzzles are left incomplete because not everyone has finished putting them together. Maybe one person did half of it, and someone else did the other half, but they didn't finish all the pieces.

Or maybe you’re trying to solve a puzzle on your own and only have some of the pieces. That’s okay! You can always add more later, just like how you can keep adding blocks to build a bigger tower.
