Ten bright blocks are ready for baby to drop into the open bucket or through the shape-sorting lid. Baby will love filling the bucket with blocks, dumping them out, then starting over again.

Includes plastic shape-sorting box with take-anywhere handle and ten colorful blocks.

An instant favorite in our house!:
These blocks were a gift for our twin boys, who started playing with them at about 6 months. Both boys instantly loved these blocks.

His favorite toy!:

Why would anyone try to figure out the right hole if the blocks can be easily put in and out after removing the lid? As a sorter, this item is completely useless.
Loves to build towers and knock them down:
