Down on the farm

Edward is a simple boy and at 16 months likes playing, eating and sleeping. Fortunately for him BigJigs sent him a farm house shape sorter to play with. This is a lovely wooden toy and Edward knew straight away what to do with it.

Two of the slats on the roof come off so the wooden animals can be stored inside and the other two slats are angled forming a handle so it can be picked up easily by little hands. Around each side are shapes which the animals can be pushed through.

Edward has had hours of fun with the farm shape sorter which is a lovely alternative to the usual shape sorters. After his reaction to meeting real live animals this is a great way to teach him about animals until our next visit! The shapes include a cow, a duck, a sheep, a horse, a hen and a cat. Each animal also has its name printed on the back for early word recognition.

Unfortunately he was a bit boisterous with the farm building last night and it is currently in Daddy’s Toy Hospital having some TLC. This toy is recommended for 12 months+.
