Tangrams - a Chinese visual game



"The tangram is a dissection puzzle (of Chinese origin) consisting of seven flat shapes, called tans, which are put together to form shapes. The objective of the puzzle is to form a specific shape (given only in outline or silhouette) using all seven pieces, which may not overlap."

"An estimate of ten million possible configurations has been offered..."   Source: Wikipedia

The practice can be very challenging. It develops visual thinking and problem solving - try it.
