Discovering Geometry Through Touch: 20 Essential Shapes for Growing Minds

A Complete Collection of Basic and Advanced Geometric Forms

Our comprehensive Shapes Puzzle introduces children to the fascinating world of geometry through hands-on exploration. Featuring 20 carefully selected shapes, this puzzle takes young learners on a journey from basic forms they encounter daily to more complex geometric concepts that build spatial reasoning skills.

Each shape is designed for little hands to explore, compare, and categorize, transforming abstract geometric concepts into tangible learning experiences.

The Complete Shape Collection

We believe that curiosity is the greatest teacher, and play is the most powerful way to learn.

Understanding shape relationships helps children recognize patterns in their environment and in mathematics. They begin to see how shapes combine to create complex figures and how geometric patterns appear in art, nature, and architecture.

Our puzzle includes these 20 essential shapes:

Basic Polygons: Square, Rectangle, Triangle, Pentagon, Hexagon, Heptagon, Octagon
Advanced Quadrilaterals: Parallelogram, Trapezium, Diamond/Rhombus, Kite
Curved Forms: Circle, Semicircle, Ellipse, Crescent, Ring
Special Shapes: Heart, Star, Cross, Arrow

Educational Benefits

01

Visual Discrimination Skills 

Learning to distinguish between similar shapes like squares and rectangles, or circles and ellipses, strengthens visual processing abilities that support reading readiness and mathematical thinking. Children learn to notice subtle differences and similarities that enhance their observational skills.

02

Classification & Categorisation 

As children group shapes by properties—curved versus straight-edged, number of sides, or symmetry—they develop logical thinking skills. This classification ability forms the foundation for more advanced mathematical concepts like sorting data and understanding mathematical relationships.

03

Vocabulary & Language Development 

Each shape introduces specific geometric vocabulary, expanding children’s descriptive language. Terms like “parallel,” “curved,” “vertices,” and “symmetrical” become part of their working vocabulary, supporting both mathematical and general communication skills.

Why Geometry Matters in Early Childhood

Geometry is often called the “gateway to mathematics” because it bridges concrete visual experiences with abstract mathematical thinking. Research shows that children who develop strong spatial skills in early childhood perform better not only in mathematics but also in science, technology, and engineering throughout their academic careers.

Between ages 3-6, children’s brains are particularly receptive to spatial learning. They naturally explore shapes in their environment—from the round wheels on their toys to the rectangular doors in their homes. Our shapes puzzle builds on this natural curiosity, providing structured exploration that deepens their geometric understanding.
