Educational benefits

  • Develops hand-eye coordination as children line up each shape with the matching space in the base.
  • Builds fine motor skills and grip strength as little hands grasp, lift, rotate and place the chunky puzzle pieces.
  • Supports early cognitive development, including problem-solving and visual perception, through matching and trial-and-error play.
  • Encourages exploration, inquiry and imagination as children experiment with shapes and use them in simple pretend-play scenarios.

Classroom & play activity ideas

  • Present the puzzle on a low shelf as part of a Baby Deluxe area so children can independently choose and repeat the activity.
  • Sit alongside a child and name each shape and colour as they place it, building early language and shape recognition.
  • Combine the shapes with other loose parts on a mat, inviting children to trace around them on paper or arrange them into simple pictures.
  • Use the puzzle during small, calm focus times to support concentration and gentle one-on-one interactions.
