Shape Sorter Truck | Sorting & Stacking Toy

Part shape sorter, part tipper truck, this is the kind of toy that keeps a toddler busy long after the shapes have been posted. Six brightly coloured wooden shapes, a circle, square, half circle, triangle, star and cross, drop through the matching holes in the truck bed, and a press on the driver's head gives a satisfying mechanical beep.

Then comes the best bit. Tilt the bed back and the tailgate swings open by itself, spilling every shape out onto the floor, ready to be loaded all over again. The bed lifts off, so it can be carried around as a sorting box on its own, and it is shaped so there is nothing to pinch small fingers.

Posting shapes teaches toddlers to look, compare and turn a piece until it fits, and the tip-and-reload loop gives them a result they can make happen themselves. Made from natural wood in soft, modern colours, it is sturdy enough for daily use.

Suitable from 18 months. A great gift for a toddler who loves anything with wheels.
