Shape Builder: On a wooden play board, kids name shapes, count sides and corners, find shapes in everyday things, fill an outline with pattern blocks, and finish a picture so both halves match.

Practice it at home

Go on a shape hunt: count the sides and corners of a window, a plate, a sign or a slice of cheese.
