wooden shape sorter

My granddaughter loves these shapes and can put them in the correct box shapes. She just turned 2 and can easily get the correct shapes in the box. Well made and will last for years.

It might sound silly, but I bought these for my husband who is over 60 years old. He had a subdural hematoma that affected him like a stroke, and we are trying to gain back dexterity in his right hand. I thought these items would be great for him to name the shape and also fit the wooden piece in the correct hole with his affected hand. Please note, it is necessary to insert the pieces along the bottom of each side of the box before putting more in or they won’t fit freely into the box without shaking other blocks out of the way. The quality is excellent. They went to great efforts to round the corners and sand the whole surface of the box. Love that it is made of wood and not plastic! Very pleased with this, and it will be useful when other people bring kids over to the house as well.

Put together well. Thick wood sides. Bottom is thin plywood, however. The top does come off easily when turned over, so I added a couple of magnets to keep it in place, but the magnets had a tendency to catch on the lid when the 18 mo old was trying to put the lid on properly, so took it back off. The string handles are a nice addition. He doesn’t really grasp the concept of matching the shapes yet, but he likes toting the box around by the string and having a mobil block container.

My granddaughter plays well although it’s tough at 16 months. Oddly there are two extra shapes with no corresponding slots. Got to keep them guessing.

This is a cute set. There are lots of shapes and they are small enough for tiny hands, but not at all choking hazards. I love wooden toys, super durable and sustainable. My one complaint, is that there is no mechanism to keep the lid on, so the shapes spill out when turning the block to search for additional shapes, which is just kind of a bummer.

Granddaughter loves it!

Our 1yo daughter loves these. I bought it for her at 11mos. She was more interested in playing with the shapes at first, but then she moved to putting them in and out of the big open top. She's rapidly figured out that they fit through the holes, and that they fit through different holes and will turn it and try to find the right ones. Some of the shapes are tough at her age still... But it keeps her fascinated and she's intent on learning how to do it, and loves playing with it. Great toy. Well made. Shapes are perfect size for tiny hands to hold and play with.

Lid doesnt stay on box. As you turn it to fit in the pieces, the lid falls off. The overall idea was great but not the fit!
