Are you familiar with the feeling of looking but not seeing? For example, you need to find something small in a room, you know it’s there, probably even right in front of you, but you simply cannot see it. That’s frustrating, and we often start blaming the lack of order in the room for this failure. However, that may not be the only reason.
Your visual perception skills may also be something to blame. They are responsible for the ability to focus on the objects you need and ignore the redundant visual information. This is something that has to be developed in childhood. Otherwise, kids whose parents didn’t pay enough attention to testing and improving their visual perception can face difficulties reading, drawing, or performing some simple actions.
So, tests like this one can be used to evaluate those skills and teach how to properly analyze what you see. Try to do it without using a ruler or some straight object and restrain yourself from tracking with your finger.
Were you able to spot the desired letter quickly? Congratulations, you probably don’t often face the problem of finding a sock in a room. If figuring out where W confused you, your skills need some improvement. This test is actually not an easy task and is designed to give you some hard by placing all those Ms and adding a bright background. These factors complicate visual perception and make you look for a better strategy.
Whenever you see puzzles like this, don’t ignore them. They are not only fun but also a great opportunity to improve your visual perception skills. Just like finding Waldo, they teach kids how to make the best of what they see and quickly isolate various objects. If they have trouble locating a city on a map, don’t be so quick to restrict them from playing games so that they spend more time studying. Perhaps, games are exactly what they need, simply make sure to find something that would both excite them and help improve their visual perception skills.
Oh, and here’s where that W is. But we hope that you have already found it.
