Jigsaw puzzles are the new coloring-they slow us down, draw us in, hold our attention and still the noise around us. Now, to meet the need, are two new puzzles from Flow (R).

In Free to Just Be, Dutch-Egyptian artist Roeqiya Fris evokes the Cairo streets of her childhood, where the women would sing while hanging up the laundry in the morning. A work that verges on the abstract, with its patterned fabrics and pink-washed stucco walls, the puzzle invites us piece by piece to feel the breeze and sun of those mornings, to delight in the casual splashes of colour, and to sense a city teeming with life and mystery.
