Most children start recognising basic shapes like circle, square and triangle around ages 2 to 3, and can name more shapes by 4 to 5. Point shapes out in everyday objects to help it stick.
Begin with the simplest — circle, square and triangle — then move on to rectangle, star and heart. Take one shape at a time and look for it around the house.
Learning shapes builds visual thinking, vocabulary and the first steps towards maths and geometry. Tracing shapes also strengthens the hand control needed for writing.
