DS is like this with puzzles. he is 2.5yo & does 60 piece ones by himself. i 
have to sit with him (so he doesn't lose interest but i don't have to help.

we take 20pc thomas puzzles to aba meetings as it keeps him quiet for a bit. 
the older kids (4yo's) try to play too, but they don't even seem to 
understand to put the pieces the right way round or that they need to be 
matched. he get annoyed & says "no, this way!" & tries to show them. i don't 
like the look from other mums, though. it's like he is some kind of freak or 
something.

he is bright in many other areas, not just puzzles/numbers. i always wonder 
how he'll grow up.
