I was extremely pleased with the construction and quality of the toy. The toy was reasonably priced and one that my nephew will get hours of enjoyment playing as he grows. I appreciate that this toy allows for imaginative play in a digital world.

my grandson is only 16 months old, so the concept of shapes is new to him. but he tried to follow my example of inserting the different shapes into the correct holes, so he was getting the idea anyway. he loved to just open the box and put the shapes in and then take them out. the item appeared well made and the colors are very bright. i am sure we will enjoy learning/playing with it for many months to come!

Shape Sorting Cube

Setting: Home

The construction of this toy is sturdy, and it is smooth and easy to get the shape blocks in and out. It arrived with the blocks positioned in the openings, and some of the paint from the blocks is smeared here, as if they were inserted with the paint still wet. It's just a few smears and isn't a problem, but I mention it because I ordered another Mellissa and Doug toy, and it also seemed to have been assembled before the paint was dry and it was a problem, because paint was flaking off. I will be returning this other toy because I don't want my daughter to but a toy with flaking paint into her mouth So, be careful.

The shape sorter is a very good product. I read another review about the lid falling off but this one does not. It actually stays on properly to the frustration of my son who is not yet old enough to get it off and on by himself. I think it will be a great toy for him to continue to use as he gets older.

the only thing that is a problem is that the cube is small enough that when you are getting to the last couple of shapes it is hard to put them in there because there is no room left because of how small the cube is. oh it would be nice if the top wouldn't slide of quite as easily.

I read reviews about people not liking that the top as not attached, however, this doesn't bother my family. I, the bargain finder, loved that it was $5-7 cheaper than elsewhere, and that it's non-toxic. My son is below the recommended age for it and it's a tad frustrating for him, but I do believe that he enjoys playing with it, and I'm happy that something educational is holding his attention for a good period of time.

A Shape Sorter with Longevity
Posted 8/4/2008 by A. Tenorio

Rating:

This is a very well constructed shape sorter. There are twelve different shapes (as opposed to the usual circle, square, and triangle), which I like because it presents a greater challenge for the child. The cube and the shapes are well made and withstand plenty of banging and mouthing. My child loves this shape sorter, and I expect her to get much enjoyment from it.

We chose this toy as a gift for our 2-yr-old granddaughter on the request of our daughter-in-law. Our granddaughter has a mitochondrial disorder and is delayed. The physical therapist working with her utilizes this toy, so we wanted our granddaughter to have her own sorting cube to play with. It is obviously a useful aid in encouraging development. Also, we love the wooden toys and the educational toys available for children.

The shape sorting cube will be a great toy for my son when he outgrows the need to put everything in his mouth. He sucked on one piece for a while as he looked at the rest of the toy, and when I put that piece into the cube, the paint began rubbing off! We've put it away until he's old enough to understand he can't eat while he plays.

Shape Sorting Cube
Posted 3/3/2008 by Richard Russell

Rating:

The product functionally had exactly what I was looking for. A variety of different shapes that could be held, and manipulated into matching holes. I felt that this would, and it does seem to, offer the opportunity to sharpen shape differentiation, and naming, also exercising of fine motor skills. Drawbacks were minor, but expected of Chinese products: 1. The lid is poorly designed, the result is that it always falls off. However, this was easily remedied by putting thin strips of Velcro in the base of each notch and the corresponding mating surfaces of the lid. This affords enough grip to hold, but not so much that young hands can't pry off when needed to. 2. There is insufficient difference between the rectangle and the square. This seems more a design issue rather than one of cost. 3. The paint is not of good quality, as some is rubbing off in the first week of use. OVERALL: I recommend this product.

Setting: Home

I thought this was a very good product as it includes many more types of shapes than other boxes of a similar purpose. One negative of this toy is that the 'lid' comes off very easily, resulting in the 'cubes' falling out or the child realizing that they can just stick the cubes in the large opening. Overall, though, if supervised, this is a good toy that provides education about shapes and their differences; particularly with the pentagon, hexagon, and octogon.

This cube is sturdy and well made. My 2 year old has fun playing with it although I think it is a little advanced for him. My only complaint is that the lid comes all of the way off, so if you are turning it to look at the others sides the lid falls off. I think it would be better on a hinge. Overall, a great toy that is a classic.

A More Challenging Shape Sorter
Posted 11/26/2007 by Christine McConnachie

Rating:

I ordered this shape sorter for my son. The Melissa and Doug shape sorter is far more challenging. Basically there are 12 different shapes and you must turn the cube and look at all sides to figure out where the hole is for the particular shape you have in your hand. I would highly recommend this shape sorter. It holds my son's interest (he is almost 2).

It certainly met our expectations. My son just turned one, and he course, has yet to master the toy, but we have played with him, and he enjoys it. It is a well made product, and meets our parental requirements that ensure it is, among other things, a learning toy without batteries.

The best toy under $15 for our 17 month old son. He loves the shapes, especially the star and oval. And he can manage to put most of the shapes in the right slot. The parallelogram and diamond are in the same color and their shapes are very similar so our son got a little confused with them.

I purchased this particular shape sorting cube primarily because I wanted to move away from plastics and was attracted to the large variety of shapes. The cube and shapes are well constructed, however the lid comes off too easily when the cube is tilted. Perhaps the cube is meant to be spun, rather than tilted? My 6 month old will likely appreciate a simpler version with fewer shapes that are located on one side to start.

I like the box, but I thought it would be a little bit bigger than it is. The wood is nice and the pieces look good. It would be nice if the top had a way of attaching to the box so that it wouldn't come right off. If someone wanted to work on putting the shapes in the side of the box it could not be turned to the side without the top coming off and contents coming out. However, I do like Melissa & Doug's handcrafted wooden toys!

My 19 month old son loves the shape sorter. With at least 9 different shapes, it is more challenging than the typical plastic shape sorter. Consequently, it is better at holding his attention. I also like that he's learning the names and properties of some other shapes, not everything in life is a circle, square or triangle.

I have been looking for a shape sorting toy for several months now. We have several premier toy stores in our area, but none carried any "sorting" type of toys...only flat puzzles. I love the natural wood, rather than plastic. I love the bright colors, which allows the shapes to be sorted by colors as well. I love the chunky, substantial shapes themselves that can be used for stacking and building. My daughter just turned two, and she is already saying "trapezoid and parallelogram." The only shape that was totally missing was the plain old circle. But, There are plenty of circles in the real world, so it is not a problem. I love the toy. My daughter plays with it endlessly. Even my older children cannot resist it!

I realized that having a sorter with only four main shapes is not challenging for my two year daughter anymore. I searched the Internet and found this great wood sorter from our favorite maker Melissa & Doug. The toy has 12 shapes including octagon, pentagon, hexagon, oval, star and some others. My daughter loves to play with her sorter but still needs some assistance. I have to turn the sorter to help her find a proper slot.

It's nice to see some good old fashioned toys where the manufacturers aren't worried about being so user friendly that they fall apart rather than have sharp corners. This toy actually looks handmade and makes me feel like the person making it really cared about the person recieving it. In this day and age of electronics and plastic everything, it's nice to see that some people actually take the time to care about the toy itself and a child's enjoyment.

The problem with this toy is that the lid is not attached. It just sits there. When your kid turns the cube over to look for the right sized hole for the piece they are holding, the top falls off and some of the pieces already inside fall out. This makes it pretty frustrating. It is otherwise well made, and has interesting shapes. Our almost 2 year old daughter, could put some shapes in correctly, but still is challenged by a lot of shapes. However, she doesn't want to spend time with the toy due to the problem described. It could be a great toy with a little hinge on the lid, and a catch on the other side, that could be easily opened.

I have had the opportunity to use this with several children. This toy is an advanced shape sorting toy that will challenge children for several years. For the younger child a few shapes can be presented at a time and for the older children a few of the shapes are very close in shape and have been challenging. I like the growth that is available but the lid does not stay on so as the children rotate the toy the lid comes off and all the pieces fall out. This has frustrated both me and the children enough that I hesitate to recommend it.

The toys I ordered are ALL excellent. I am a pediatric occupational therapist. One of the things I am trained to do is use toys to facilitate typical child development. Shape sorters are really one of the best toys for this. They can be used as with a child as early as nine months, usually up to around 3 years. This shape sorter is wonderful. It has 16 shapes, many unique to the majority of sorters. The blocks are bright--wooden toys are so much better than junky plastic ones. This sorter was inexpensive...I just love, love, love it. My 5 month old baby likes to watch me dump the shapes onto the floor. He also likes to pick up the shapes (I place and hold them in his hand) and release them into the cube. The only thing I wish were different is that the cube could be bigger. It's hard to fit the last 3 blocks into the cube once the other shapes are in it.

We haven't had any time since we received the toy in the mail, but I did open it for my 2-year old and then my 5-year old said to him, "let's put the shapes where they belong". I thought that was interesting because most of the time, my 5-year old will shun any gifts my 2-year old receives. But I think initially, this toy was very well received and will be played with.

Nice toy. My baby is too young to use it to the fullest as yet. Some of the shapes are so similar that it is slightly challenging even for me. It will definitely challenge her when she's old enough to want to challenge herself. Design-wise, I think, I might have opted to put the different variations of the same shape on the same side. I feel this would help baby see more clearly and sooner that though the shapes are very similiar, they really are diffrent. (It would promote shape discrimination.)

Setting: Homeschool

It is a fun toy, but two of the shapes are very hard to put in their place.

This is a nice product, but the lid broke in half a few days after we received it. So that was disappointing. I was also surprised at how many different shapes there were. It is a little advanced for my one year old. I assumed there were only 4 shapes total.

This product is just as described. It is colorful and an excellent addition to our toddler room. Loved by both teacher and children. Thanks.

Review of Shape Sorting Cube

This is a good toy. The only problem I saw with it was the fact that, when, say, nine or so of the shapes are already inside the cube, they pile and take up so much room inside that subsequent pieces don't have room to fall down into the cube when you place them through their respective openings.
