Shapes are how little ones make sense of the world.

Spotting shapes is early maths and pre-writing rolled into one.

Before letters come lines and curves. Shapes teach both. Your child learns to name a circle, then spots it on a plate, a wheel, a window. Flat shapes first. Solid shapes when they're ready.
