When children fit the correct shapes in their respective slots, they start distinguishing clearly between various 2D shapes. Sorting and complementary pairing of geometric shapes are critical sensorial processes which improve children's analytical and classification skills thereby improving their understanding of 2D geometry. Remembering the shapes and forming complementary pairs is a brilliant exercise for their short term memory and it also sets a foundation for reading and other working memory. Inserting the pieces on the rod enhances their dexterity.

ACTIVITIES

  • Stacking
    • Show the child how to remove all the pieces and place them around randomly. Let them stack the pieces back by putting the inner piece of chocolate and then fitting the corresponding outer layer of cake.
  • Sorting
    • Ask the child to remove all the pieces and sort them in two groups, large pieces on one side and inner pieces on the other. Take one large piece, show the child how to find its pair from the other group by visual examination.
  • Name Game
    • When the child is familiar with the toy, give names of the inner pieces in 3 stages. a. Introduction: Name the shapes slowly, at the most 2 at a time. (eg. - "This is a star") b. Recognition: Ask the child to identify, (eg. - “Which is a square?”) c. Confirmation: Ask “What is this?" (eg. - child answers "Square")
  • Memory Game
    • Keep the inner pieces away in a tray. Place the outer pieces in a line. Place a shell on any one outer piece and ask the child to bring its pair from the tray. This can also be done vice versa.
