Baby's First Blocks with bucket introduces baby to shape-sorting fun. Baby can drop blocks into the open bucket or through the shape-sorting lid. Filling the bucket with blocks, dumping them out and starting over is great for eye-hand coordination and other early skills. Then baby can move on to sorting and stacking, learning about identifying and matching shapes while having fun. All 10 blocks fit inside the bucket. The carry-handle makes it easy to take along. Plastic blocks are recommended for children ages 6 to 36 months.
