Turkey Tangram Challenge

Nov 8, 2024 | South Blue Valley

Happy Thanksgiving! 

Once you've watched the Macy's Parade and eaten your fill of turkey, what's next? Many families have traditions, games, and other activities that fill their evening - and if you're looking for another fun activity to add, we invite you to challenge your family to complete our Turkey Tangram puzzle!


What is a Tangram?

A Tangram is a shape puzzle, consisting of seven flat polygons (called tans) which are put together to form shapes. The goal is to recreate a specific shape, given only an outline.

The rules for Tangram puzzles are relatively simple:

  • The pieces must all be connected (by an edge or corner)
  • All pieces must be lying flat
  • None of the pieces may overlap
  • All 7 pieces must be used
  • You may flip, rotate, or otherwise re-orient pieces as needed
