Post Sort n Play

Bring early classification, literacy, and numeracy to life with the Freckled Frog Post Sort n Play. This vibrant and versatile set combines colour matching, posting fun, and early writing practice in one beautifully crafted open-ended resource, designed to inspire learning through playful exploration. The set includes four generously sized wooden boxes, each featuring a blackboard, posting slot, and brightly coloured door (green, red, blue, and yellow). Also included are 40 wooden discs in varying shades that correspond to the box colours, encouraging children to sort, match, count, and create. Each disc features colour on one side and a chalkboard surface on the reverse, offering even more learning opportunities such as early writing, number recognition, and creative drawing.

This multi-functional set is ideal for building fine motor skills, colour recognition, early maths skills, and imaginative communication. Children can also use the boxes as letterboxes for notes and surprises, enhancing social play and encouraging early literacy development.
