Product Description
Engage little ones with this Melissa & Doug Classic Toy that's beautifully constructed from high-quality, solid wood. This ultimate shape sorter features 12 chunky, vibrantly colored shapes with rounded edges that are easy for little hands to hold and maneuver. Each cube fits through a hole of the same shape on the natural-finish hardwood cube. Kids will delight as they drop each shape into the cube, and hear it make a satisfying "clunk" sound. Then they can open the lid, take the cube out and start all over again! The Shape Sorting Cube is a classic educational activity for toddlers with nostalgic appeal. The toy is entertaining for kids while it promotes color and shape recognition, problem-solving skills, and fine motor skills. Finding the correct matching shape can also help kids feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. It makes a great gift for toddlers and preschoolers ages two and older for hands-on, screen-free play.

- Reviewed in the United States on June 25, 2024Style: Shape Sorting CubeVerified PurchaseOmg! My daughter is obsessed with shapes and absolutely loves this toy! We are a big Melissa & Doug family and we love their wooded toys. This cube is fun and has 12 shapes! The only thing I will say that I don't like about it is the method to retrieve the shapes once they have been inserted. You remove one side of the cube by sliding the side out. The side slides out very easily and therefore slides out ALL the time! Not just when you are wanting it to! Otherwise this toy is amazing!

My dog suddenly got a hankering for wood blocks and destroyed half of them, so I bought a new set. The new set arrived broken like this. As much as I could blame the manufacturer, I’m like 99% sure it was my delivery driver, because of where it was thrown. The guy should’ve been a football player. 😂 Regardless, I was able to switch lids with the old one, since it’s not worth the hassle of exchanging. Everything else is great.
