Melissa & Doug Take-Along Shape Sorter

It's time to shape up! The Melissa & Doug Take-Along Shape Sorter toddler toy enthralls kids both at home and on the go - it has a plushy padded handle that makes it easy to take along, and even kids who aren't walking yet love using the handle to tote their Shape Sorter around.

The Take-Along Shape Sorter is self-contained in a soft, padded carry case. One side is a traditional plastic shape sorter, with slots to drop through the included colorful plastic cubes, triangles, circles, hearts, stars, and more. The other side of the Shape Sorter has a series of crinkly windows with pictures. Lifting the crinkly pictures reveals a simple shape matching the picture on the flap: under the kite is a diamond, under the egg is an oval, etc. To release the shapes and start over, just open the plush doggie zipper!

This toddler toy is loaded with multisensory entertainment for your baby, stimulating their sight, hearing, and sense of touch with bright colors, rattles and crinkles, and interesting textures. Sorting the blocks in the Melissa & Doug Take-Along Shape Sorter helps kids learn shapes, exercises their problem-solving skills and logic, and develops their fine motor skills. And as with many Melissa & Doug toys, the Take-Along Shape Sorter comes with suggestions for extension activities for ages 9 months, 12 months, and 18 months. Suggested for ages 9 months and up.
