It may seem like an easy concept to introduce to young children, however teaching the essence of three-dimensional-shapes can be a tad tricky. One way of explaining it is by giving examples, real life examples. Choose everyday objects which your child is familiar of such as a ball, a box, a container etc. Now ask them the question if they can tell the difference between a drawing of a circle on a piece of paper and an actual ball. The more examples you give them, the easier they’ll get a grasp of what 3D shapes are and learn more about their properties. Another way this concept can be introduced is to have the actual objects present in order for young children to differentiate between real life 3D objects and actual 3D solid objects.

These wonderful 3D wooden geometry solid objects are for all types of learning through play. Not only are children being exposed to the wonderful smooth solid hardwood shape feeling but also getting early exposure to the basics of geometry and shape recognition. These amazing solid shapes range in size from 5cm to 8cm. Children can explore shape, size, pattern, volume and measurement with these invaluable hands-on tools. The smooth wooden shapes include sphere, cube, cylinders, pyramid, prisms, plus much more.
