What our experts think
This recycling truck makes an engaging shape sorter for little ones as well as providing a great addition to their imaginative play. The children enjoyed working out where to slot in the different shapes, which introduces them to thinking visually and spatially, as they start to work out which shape will fit where, based on its dimensions.
Identifying and naming the different shapes, objects and colours also helps to build vocabulary and observation skills. The children enjoyed pushing the truck around and loading and unloading it as part of their small-world play too – which also benefits their language skills and creativity.
