Shape sorter toys like the Crawl ‘n Pop! Turtle are great for familiarising babies with shapes, as well as practicing their logical thinking skills. The Crawl ‘n Pop! Turtle also moves, encouraging children to crawl, developing coordination while strengthening arm and leg muscles.
EYFS goals supported
Mathematics – “Attempts, sometimes successfully, to fit shapes into space on inset boards or jigsaw puzzles.”
Understanding the world – “Anticipates repeated sounds, sights and actions, e.g. when an adult demonstrates an action toy several times.”
It would be even better if...
