Shape-O® Toy

The toy that helped me grow!

Now is the time to introduce your toddler to the original shape sorter ball which can facilitate motor skill development and problem solving skills, teach cause and effect, increase self-esteem, and help with shape identification and color practice.

Includes one Shape-O® ball and 10 shaped blocks.

DESCRIPTION

This is the original Shape-O® Toy that’s rolled through numerous color schemes and entertained children for decades.

For babies, it’s a ball! It’s bright, colorful, and smooth, and it makes a happy noise. The holes give just the right grip for tiny hands. Baby learns the basics of rolling, tumbling, throwing. The flat surfaces make the ball roll in a different direction each time, keeping baby engaged.

For toddlers, it’s a toy box full of blocks! The toy grows with the child as s/he discovers what causes the rattling and watches the tumbling blocks, then learns to pull the ball apart to release 10 different-shaped blocks. Play with them, sort them, stack them up. Fitting the right blocks into the right holes teaches manual dexterity and shape distinction.

For children, it’s an education! They can count the dots on the blocks, then learn the numbers on the other sides of the blocks and play number games.

Blocks can be stored inside the ball to keep them from getting lost. Shapes are sized for safety for children 12 months and older.
