Nic Lock a Bloc Shape Sorter

This Lock a Bloc Shape Sorter by Nic is a wooden shape sorter cube with a key to open and shut the door on the front. This classic wooden toy shape sorter for babies and toddlers is made from solid FSC beech wood, with the 9 shapes hand painted red, green and yellow in non-toxic paint. Tots will enjoy working out which of the three holes the brightly coloured blocks fit through, sorting by colour, locking and unlocking the door to tip the shapes out. This locking shape sorter is perfect for children exploring the enveloping schema – hiding treasures inside the box and discovering them again. Playing with this solid wood shape sorter is a fun way to develop shape and colour recognition skills, and hone hand-to-eye co-ordination and motor skills.

This wooden toy is ethically made from solid wood and is beautifully simple. It will look right at home in a Montessori playroom and delight growing toddlers.

Ethically made, simple and hand-crafted, this toy has been made from solid FSC wood and treated with natural oils and partly coloured red with oil-based plant pigments and natural colours which retains the natural features of the wood.

This toy measures 17cm x 12cm x 14cm. 

Suitable from 12 months+.
