Dd chose a new 300 pc puzzle, a ThinkFun Gravity Maze marble logic game, and a National Geographic STEM magnetic marble run (which can be assembled on the fridge).

She also sometimes like to play Bananagrams by herself. Tons and tons of books from the library. And yes building items.

Lego sets and puzzles really shouldn’t be played with on Shabbos or Yom Kippur, especially by 11 year olds. AYLOR

There are varying opinions on puzzles. R' Scheinberg (and others) has a sefer in which he says puzzles are ok.

Lego is even more lenient. Most poskim allow it, though of course there are also few who do not.
