A perfect first manipulative! Five two-sided boards with ten recessed design templates are ready to fill with these brightly colored geometric shapes. Complete the pictures, or create your own designs and matching activities. Everything stores neatly in the sturdy wooden storage box.

• Activity #2: Ask the child to hand you a specific color and/or shape block. Repeat the activity until the child is able to identify each shape and color independently.
• Activity #3: Ask the child to place the blocks on a flat surface and create a unique geometric design.
• Activity #4: Trace the shapes on paper. Ask the child to color in each outline to match the piece in the set.
