As my 14 month daughter works on getting the right shape in the right hole. It's true that sometimes she just gets frustrated and picks up the lid and throws the shapes in the bucket instead of sorting them, but when I play with her talk to her and ask her where each shape goes she really focuses and we get them together. She looks so proud of herself when she gets them right, too! But even when she is playing by herself and taking the lid off, it's still a very fun toy for her to put them all in, take them out, and do it all over again!

2.) Fun simple toy for many stages of development

My Mother-In-Law got this for my son when he was six months old. He has played with these blocks pretty much everyday since then. They are small and light and easy for those little teeny hands to grab. When he first got them he would bang the blocks together, bang the blocks on the bucket, and then grab the bucket with his feet and study it. Then he tried to grab two blocks at once. Then three. He would grab the blocks out of the bucket. We stack them, he knocks them down. He grabs the lid and bangs it on everything in sight. Now that he's figuring out how to put things into other things he'll put the blocks into everything, into the middle of his stackable rings, into buckets, into the actual bucket and occasionally he'll place a block on top of the lid and then look at me like - did I do that right? We're also now putting just the lid on the floor and setting the blocks into the right holes so he can see what goes where, which he is very interested in.

I love it that some day, when he's older, he'll make the connection between the actual block and cutout shapes and start putting the blocks through the correct holes. I think that mental connection is more important then just forcing things through whatever hole they happen to fit in. I guess eventually babies will get the concept either way but for us this is the perfect shape sorter.

Our son received this as a gift before he turned 1. Although he could not sort the blocks then, he started trying. It was amazing to watch him over the next year change the way he played with the toy. Initially he just played with the blocks, then threw them in the bucket, dumped them out again. He would also carry the bucket with blocks around by the handle. Later he was able to put in the round one, then another and within a short time all of them. He still likes playing with it. It was apparent that he had a sense of achievement after each new "accomplishment". I highly recommend this toy.

This is such an inexpensive, simple toy, yet it is hands down my 9 month old's favorite toy! If he starts crawling away from us all we have to do is put the blocks back in the bucket and shake it around and he just has to come over and dump them all out. He is starting to get that the pieces go in the holes, but mostly he just crawls around holding either the yellow lid or a block in each hand. He also loves to put the blocks into the little "slide" made for balls in another toy we have. Miraculously, with my son and 2 dogs, we have not lost a block yet!

This was one of the first toys I gave my daughter. She likes to bang the shapes together, drop them from high places and uses the lid as a hat or to look through. She also finds much enjoyment from filling the box and dumping it over and over again. This is an inexpensive toy that brings hours of fun, without lights, batteries or annoying sounds. You can't beat a classic and I truly believe it promotes a sense of creativity.

I purchased these blocks for my grandson for a chirstmas gift. I know he will learn from them as they have brilliant colors, to keep him envolved in playing with them. The different shapes that they come is a great so he can learn as he is playing with them. I love that it comes with a container to keep them all in when done playing daily. I definatly would recommend these for any small child. they are big enought as not to have to worry about a child choking on them.

My daughter got this toy for her first birthday. She's 17 months now and still likes playing with it. She will actually spend a considerable amount of time (considerable for her two second attention span...) trying to get the shapes in the right holes. She likes when we play together and I can help her find the right hole. She also likes to pick out the colors that I specify. The lid does come off easily, as others mentioned. However, I don't really see this as a negative. If it didn't come off, my daughter would try, get frustrated, and leave the toy altogether. At least the way it is, if she gets tired of trying to put the blocks in the holes she can just take the lid off and do it that way. Plus, once they're all inside she can dump them back out, which is possibly more fun then putting them in in the first place. She also likes the handle so she can carry it around with her. All in all, a great toy!

Sometimes I yearn for more basic simple toys such as this one. Not everything has to light up and make noise to be fun. My son loves this and carries it around by the handle all day sometimes. when he isn't shape sorting he is using it to lug his toys around the house. It is definitely durable (it would have to be to still be in one piece after my son got his hands on it).

My nine month old son likes this toy. The lid doesn't snap on so its easy for him to have fun without getting frustrated. Perhaps when he is older he will play with it more the way its intended.

We bought this for my son when he was six months old. At that time he was just interested in chewing on the blocks and turning them over, but as he gets older (he is almost 11 months now) he finds more to do with the blocks. He throws them and chases after them, he bangs them on the floor, he puts them in the pail and dumps them out again and again... I am sure he will soon be working on putting them through the holes in the lid. This is a great basic toy to help babies learn about shapes and colors, as well as how shape affects how things turn or roll. My son has lots of fancy expensive toys, but he would rather have these blocks, a spatula, and a clean two liter bottle, and he can play for ages. My only complaint is that the blocks are impossible to keep together and we find them under the sofa and under the pack-n-play, and behind the chair- you get the idea. But that really isn't a solveable problem, I'm just whining, so the toy still gets 5 stars.

This was bought for my 6 month old, so at first he's just chewing on the blocks, but I am really excited for him to start realizing what he is "supposed" to do with it. Very durable, bright colors, great toy all around.

As other reviewers have mentioned, the lid does no snap on, and I'm sure a lot of babies will learn to bypass the sorting because of this. Honestly, I see that as logical reasoning! Toys that have many uses are great in my house, and if he wants to just fill up the bucket and dump it out then I'm fine with it. Sorting the shapes will be a special game we play together.

Like most other young infants, our daughter prefers to pull the top off, dump the blocks out, and chew on everything. She's 8 mos now, so I figure in a few more months or so she might just start trying to figure it out. She loves it though...so we do too! I actually like the fact that the lid comes off so easily. If it didn't, she might not play with it at all yet. Afterall, what baby wants to play with something frustrating? :)

This set of blocks was an impulse buy. My baby was beginning to sit up and I wanted something that would keep him occupied while he was practicing his new sitting skills. I also am trying to balance the singing/noisemaking toys with simpler toys.

For a 7 month old baby (he got them at 5 months) I love everything about these blocks, the bucket and the lid. They are colorful and catch his attention. They are lightweight so he can pick them up and manipulate them. His coordination is improving on a daily basis. Other reviews have mentioned that the lid doesn't stay on so, but I see this as a positive so that my baby can remove the lid himself and take out all the toys inside. Maybe as my child gets older and is able to use the sorter, I will be more concerned with this, but for now it doesn't present a problem.

I wasn't expecting this simple toy to hold his attention for very long, but this is the toy that he plays with for the longest period of time. He hasn't gotten bored with it at all. Well worth the cost, but cheaper elsewhere.

My 8 month old daughter enjoys playing with this toy that she got 1 month ago. It's true that the lid comes off easily, and that's the first thing she discovered.

She can occupy herself with the toy for 10-20 minutes on her own.

This product comes with two blocks of each geometrical shape allowing you and your child to take turns or follow the leader while learning shapes colors and hand-eye coordination :O)
The toy itself is very durable so as to allow for attempts at wrong shape wrong hole without damage or distortion to the blocks or the box.
It even takes a beating if your child decides it is more fun to bang the blocks together like cymbals.

Our 13 month old daughter has had this since she was about 6 months old and she loves it! At first she just liked chewing the cubes, then she moved on to dumping them out of the bucket, and now she is finally starting to put the blocks in the holes. It's great to see the progression! It has outlasted many of her pricey toys and it's so sturdy I have no doubt it will be around for years. The only downside is the foil sticker on the side of the bucket means it can't get thrown in the sink.

My husband & I love this toy. My 10 month old plays with it everyday & has since she's been 7 months old.
Although I agree that the lid comes off easily, I don't see it as a problem. Infact, I actually like that about the toy because it can be used to hold other toys. There is no way a 6 month old has the ability to fit the shapes in the correct holes anyhow- that is a much more advanced skill that my friend's 2 year old is just learning now with the same exact toy. So I would argue that this toy is good for children of all ages because it can be used for many different stages of development. When she first started playing with the toy she'd just put the blocks in her mouth & knock the container over to spill them all out. Within the last few weeks we've noticed she now is much more deliberate and will take the blocks out & place them back into the container without knocking anything over. We can really see her development with this toy more so than with any other. Perhaps this is because she plays with them everyday. We also like this toy more than any other because it allows us to interact with her so much more. We can play with the blocks with her such as building towers for her to knock down, showing her the colors & shapes & how they fit, even tossing or rolling them back & forth to get her used to the idea of rolling, catching & throwing. The 2 biggest complaints I have are that 1) they are easy to lose, and 2) they are impossible to find in the stores. Toyrus doesn't have them in their stores or online as far as I can tell, and I could only find them in an actual target store, not online at all. So if you want this toy I suggest you order it from Amazon.com and don't even bother looking for it anywhere else.

I bought his for my son when he turned 1 and it turned out to be a pretty fun toy, for a shape sorter. He was able to take the lid off and replace it easily, which helped cut down on his frustration level early on when he wanted to put the shapes in the bin and couldn't quite get them into the holes right. It also allowed him to easily to put other items in the bucket to carry around.

The toy also held up really well to his rough play (standing on it, throwing it, etc.), and the shapes are easily identifiable among other toys so gathering the pieces aren't too difficult (the boy loves to throw things!). Every so often we would sit down and play with this together, and he really seemed to have fun showing me what he could do, and I could tell he was very proud when he mastered it. He did utilize it in his free play time as well, though not quite in the structured manner it is designed for. Great value for the price, and great design overall.

My son loves to mouth and whack these blocks together. They make a great sound when thwacked together. I was worried about the plastic california thing til I realized that practically everything is known to the state of california to cause cancer. They are plastic after all, as are most of his toys. These were cheap and have great sound. The box is nice because it makes a lot of racket when he plays with the blocks against it. The lid does not stay on. I am not sure my son will ever use it as intended, but I guess I do not care. Maybe when he gets much older, but as it is, he loves to mouth the lid too. It is very interesting to him to hold and manipulate. And it has an embossed side that the block sound good rubbed against. If you are not looking for a good racket, maybe you should stay clear of it, but I like it for that since my son seems to love making the noises. The blocks are also easy to pick up, light and have lots of places to grab.

These blocks were a gift for our twin boys, who started playing with them at about 6 months. Both boys instantly loved these blocks. They are easy to hold in small hands and the colors and shapes seem to be engaging. We have dozens of toys but this bucket of blocks are always the first thing either baby plays with. They are so drawn to them in fact, we used these blocks as stimulation to encourage the boys to sit up on their own for the first time by placing a couple at their feet, and now use them to entice crawling. While they are not anywhere close to actually sorting them through the appropriate holes, in the three months they've been playing with these, the red bucket and the lid are every bit as much fun as the blocks themselves. It is not uncommon to see each baby with a couple blocks or a piece of the bucket despite having countless other options for toys. As parents we love the shapes and colors and are constantly reinforcing both during play. I like that these can grow with the babies for a while. They started out just holding them, then teething with them, banging them together to make noise, now they put them into the bucket, eventually they can sort the shapes. Many of the toys we have been given have very short windows of appropriateness for babies, these blocks are certainly getting use throughout the first year of development and probably beyond. And while they probably would have enjoyed them earlier than about 6 months, they were best once they could sit unassisted, as occasionally someone would tip over onto a block and bonk a head. Once they were stable sitting the blocks were a hit!

My 8 month old has been playing with this for 2 months, and she LOVES it. She feels the shapes, chews on them, throws them, bangs them together, etc. However, she doesn't actually put the shapes through their correct hole. The lid comes off way too easily! She rips the lid off, bangs it on the red box, throws it, chews it, but never uses it as it is intended. Perhaps if the lid snapped on somehow she would learn how to put the shapes into the holes.
I do use this toy to say the name of the shape and the colors, and I try to show her how they fit into the holes, but she's not interested.
One good thing is you can wash them in the sink with soap and water very easily. You can't do this with a lot of toys.

Dumping them out, chewing, banging, throwing-it's literally the first toy she goes for when placed in front of a bunch of different toys. I try holding the lid on with a finger to try and get her to sort, but it's not going to happen when she knows the lid comes off!

Got this for our 8-month old daughter(she's almost 10 months old now). She loves doing just about everything with these blocks EXCEPT putting them into the box through the holes(I assume that'll come later). She stuffs them into her mouth, throws them at daddy and bangs them together. Nice colors, very durable(hard plastic) and so easy to clean, when needed.

As others have mentioned, I do wish the lid would stay on a little better. I'll probably figure out some way to secure it but it'll end up being an ugly fix(eg duct tape) ;)

I also have some concern about the blocks when she's crawling around on the floor and she's left them strewn about. In particular, that she might slip/fall(rare now, but it happens) and land on one of the blocks. The blocks are hard plastic and even the rounded ones could hurt her if she fell back/forward onto one while sitting/crawling. I don't think this is really a problem specific to this product but would be something to monitor during use. I've learned to just put them away or at least swipe them out of her path as she crawls.

Bottom line: Would I buy this again if it were at the same price under same conditions and having researched alternatives? Yes.

My 15 month old son has had this toy for about 4 months and he just loves it. After about of week of working with him, he's learned what shapes go where, and when it's time to clean up his playroom each night, he always puts his blocks back in the bin one at a time through their proper holes.

My only complaint is the lid. Like many people before me have said, it doesn't snap on, it just kinda sits on top of the bin. If I don't replace the top after he's dumped out all the blocks, then he loses interest and moves on. Overall, it's a sturdy, simple toy for teaching kids their shapes and we're very pleased with it

My 4 month old daughter likes this toy, not so much for the sorting function yet, but because the blocks are easy to handle and she can carry/flip/throw the bucket around. I agree with some of the other reviewers about the lid not snapping on. Just to make it clear, when an adult is carefully carrying this by the handle, the lid can pop off. Every time I show her how a block won't fit in the wrong hole and then put it in the right one, she tries to interrupt me by taking off the lid to make it easier. Funny at first, but I wonder if this will delay it's true functionality until she's old enough to value the 'puzzle' aspect. Overall though, it's durable, easy to clean, and she seems to really like it.

I wish it didn't come with the sticker, but I guess if this is a concern you could always scrape/tear it off before a chewer decides to do it.

My seven-month-old daughter received this toy as a gift and plays with it almost every day.

I don't know how it actually works as a shape sorter toy, since she hasn't done that yet, and the lid does come off very easily - and sometimes she just likes playing with the lid! The shapes are perfectly sized to fit her hand. My other shape-sorter toy might be better for actually sorting shapes, but for now, this toy is fun for her and keeps her entertained for a while. I'm a little concerned now after seeing some reviews questioning possible harmful chemicals in the plastic and have to research this, as she does chew the blocks a lot since she is teething.

I will say I would never pay retail price for this or many other toys. I got this one in like new condition at a mom 2 mom sale for $1.00.

As for the toxicity issue, well, we try to do our best to be mindful of these things, but unfortunately, it is almost impossible to know what is really in a product.

101.) Not horrible, but there are better out there
Reviewed by: the TV guy over at PopBunker Raleigh, NC

There isn't much to say about a shape sorter - they are (in general) great for young toddlers. It's one of the better early brain development toys, and any "game" where the goal is to put all the pieces away is something worth embracing.

That being said, most shape sorters aren't going to appear much different, so there is generally going to be one or two things that differ from one to the other. The Fisher Price model here has a rectangular base which stays firm, and comes with a carrying handle (which is nice, I guess.) The shape blocks have a small hole in the middle to make it a little less of a choking hazard.

However the major flaw with the product is the top of the sorter. It is easily removable, even by accident. Just pulling up on the top through the holes can pull off the top, eliminating any of the "challenge" of putting the blocks through the holes. I guess you could say the real brain development of this toy is whether they can figure out how easy it is to just remove the top.

I would think most toddlers don't want to take the cheap way out, so if you can find this cheap enough here (or need the immediate gratification of finding it in a brick & mortar store) then it's not a horrible pick, but if you're looking for a shower gift, I'd highly recommend the Tolo Rolling Shape Sorter instead. For a few dollars more, you get a much better product with locking tops (both sides) and rattling blocks.

I have 14-month old twins and both enjoy taking the shapes out and occassionally putting them back in, but it is extremely difficult to get them to use the lid. It seems as if the lid almost just balances on top, there is no effort required to take it off. Sometimes, I can get them to try the sorter for one or two shapes, but then they immediately pull the lid off to take the shape(s) back out. I love watching them when they actually use the sorter, it is great to see their little hands trying to manipulate the shapes, but those moments are few and far between. They like to play with the shapes and box, but it doesn't serve its purpose in my opinion. If only they had made it with a lid that you could somehow fasten in place.

113.) Concerned about possible use of harmful chemicals
Reviewed by: Sunshine New York, NY

My son received this toy as a gift for his 6-month birthday. At the time, I remember hearing about how some plastic toys (often made in China) contain harmful chemicals that are known to cause cancer and feeling concerned that this toy might be one of them. I didn't do anything for awhile, seeing how my son enjoyed playing with the toy and thinking (stupidly) that if this toy were truly harmful, it wouldn't be sold in the U.S.

One day, I came across this toy on Amazon and noticed the warning to CA residents under "Product Details." I couldn't believe it when I read this toy is made with harmful chemicals known to "cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm." I bet a lot of people who are giving this toy 5 stars are not aware of the warning.

UPDATE TO REVIEW ON 10-28-09: Amazon has removed the warning about the harmful chemicals, and in response to an inquiry I sent them told me "Product information from the item detail is added or deleted upon manufacturers information." Amazon suggested I contacted FP, which I did, and the FP rep said he couldn't find anything in their records indicating the toy's manufacturing had been changed. The toy's production has not been altered since 2007. He suggested that perhaps the warning wasn't accurate, and that's why it was removed. That may be, but it seems like a pretty big mistake for Amazon to make on multiple FP toys. I see now that none of the FP toys that previously had this warning have it now.

As for my son's reaction to the toy, he liked to bang the pieces together and put them in his mouth, but he never bothered to try to sort the shapes since the top doesn't stay in place, as others have mentioned. My son always removed the top and took out all of the pieces, no matter how many times I showed him how to sort the shapes with the top in place. Talk about poor design! I should have given it 1 star for the "educational" rating in hindsight, but I figured that theoretically it could be of some value if a child didn't remove the top. Also, Amazon wouldn't let me go back and change my ratings.

I just got another shape sorter for him from Amazon (the Tolo Rolling Shape Sorter), and within minutes he tried to put the shapes in the slots because he couldn't remove either the top or the bottom of the unit. Now that's an educational toy!

As other reviews mentioned, the top easily pops off of the toy giving babies no incentive to use the shape sorter function of the toy. My son would usually just grab the lid and knock the thing over. Then he would go on to the other toys that were more interesting for him. I would not buy this toy again or recommend that anyone else do so.
