Shapes-Puzzle "Basket with fruits - 2"

🍎 The Child's Role in the Game

“Fruit Basket – 2” invites children to explore the concepts of big – medium – small through hands-on play. Thanks to a three-layer design, little learners discover how each fruit can appear in different sizes, tucked one inside another. As they uncover each layer, children naturally develop logical thinking, comparison skills, and spatial awareness — all through joyful, intuitive interaction.

📦 What's in the Box

• 15 wooden puzzle pieces (3 sizes for each fruit)

• 5 fruit types: pear, grapes, apricot, lemon, strawberry

• Durable printed wooden base with cut-out slots

• 3 embedded layers — small pieces fit inside medium and large ones

• Board size: 230×160×12 mm

🔍 How to Play & Why It Matters

1. Remove the largest fruit piece — what’s hidden beneath it?

2. Invite the child to sort each fruit from small to large.

3. Compare shapes and colors. Discuss differences in size.

4. Turn the activity into a story: “Let’s make jam! Start with the smallest apricot.”

5. Play blindfolded — can the child identify the fruit by shape?

Each piece nests perfectly into the next. Special finger holes in the base make it easy for little hands to remove even the smallest pieces.
