BRIO Classic Shape Sorter
What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

What makes this product special
Learning to sit up and eventually stand actually requires a strong sense of balance and a well-trained vestibular sense. You can read much more and check out our suggestions for helping baby on their way in our "Sit & Stand" baby category.
Do you miss having your keys, the remote, and the whisk where they belong? If so, a sensory fidget set to twist, turn, and tinker with, just like this one, is the ideal gift idea for your child. This type of play can boost your child's confidence and make them feel good at tinkering. And that can boost your child's courage to try out new skills.
The activity is wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn new things:
- Helps your child develop fine motor skills.
- Supports your child's perception of shapes/colours.
- Strengthens hand-eye coordination, a skill we rely on for instance when we kick or catch the ball that comes flying at us in PE class, when we cut accurately line with scissors, or when we need to pour water into a glass without spilling.
