Our friends from Makin' Faces are BACK!
Tania and the crew are ready to wow you with their incredible free-hand face painting. If you can imagine it, they can (almost certainly) paint it!
Off-the-face painting is still a great option, too! Many kids - and adults - prefer a fun arm or leg 'tattoo'.

Regulars of Brighten Up Toys & Games may already know that 735 Tower Street, Fergus is home to two giant puzzles constructed on site, one the 'Around the World' puzzle at 42,000 pieces and the other the 'Wildlife' puzzle at 33,600 pieces. Both puzzles were constructed by customers with the former owners and their team.
With the impacts of the pandemic on social gatherings and other activities, plans to construct another giant puzzle had to be put on hold in 2021 and 2022. We are so pleased that this winter puzzling a giant puzzle will return!
The 2023 giant puzzle to be constructed is...
'Memorable Disney Moments' by Ravensburger, which includes 40,320 pieces!
This giant puzzle features 10 hand-drawn scenes from iconic Disney films including, Snow White, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi, Cinderella, Peter Pan, The Jungle Book, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King. Each scene is framed by a film strip indicating the film's year of release and depicting additional scenes from each movie. Bonus! A Mickey Mouse symbol is hidden in each of the 10 scenes.
How can you participate?
Come visit us! Construction of this puzzle will begin on Sunday January 29th (International Puzzle Day) at the 735 Tower Street South, Fergus location of Brighten Up Toys & Games. The puzzle will be completed in sections and will typically be available for customers to puzzle during regular business hours.
Mon-Wed; 9:30am-7:00pm
Thu-Fri; 9:30am-8:00pm
Sat; 9:00am-5:00pm
Sun; 11:00am-4:30pm
We know puzzling can be very addictive, but appreciate your understanding of our business hours and that, on occasion, puzzling may be unavailable as we switch from section to section.
Details of the final assembly of the puzzle will be released nearer to completion!
