Early Learning Center Shape-Matching Hammer Toy, Hammer Toy, Hammer, Shape-Matching, Baby Gift, 200052, Authentic

Early Learning Centre is a British manufacturer of toys for toddlers with nearly 50 years of history. They offer toys that support children's learning and development through play in over 50 countries around the world. ELC's Shape Sorting Hammer Bench is a hammer toy that involves tapping the embedded shape-sorting pieces with a toy hammer to push them down. Once all the pieces have been pushed out, flip the bench over and tap the hammer again. By hammering in the four thin, slender pieces—circle, triangle, square, and star—children can recognize shapes, and the color-coded pieces help develop color recognition. Pulling out and fitting pieces also improves manual dexterity and promotes brain development. By hammering in the pieces as intended, children develop hand and arm movements, and by repeatedly hammering, they develop concentration. It also makes a great gift for birthdays, Christmas, baby showers, and other special occasions.
