HABA Shape Sorter Curioso Review

Customer Ratings:

This is a nice toy, and the blocks are fun and interesting. However, I just don't find it to be educational as a shape sorter. The problem is that the sorter is made of cloth and the cutout holes are not very true to shape. The blocks don't fit in with ease. If I had it to do again I would get one of the wooden sorters that Haba makes.

This is not a perfect toy & I would not have spent $50 on it if I would have seen it in person first. This sorter comes with 8 blocks to put in the holes (3 of which go into the same hole). Also, the square block does not have a square hole to fit inside (it is slightly rectangular on one side) & you have to turn it sideways to fit it in the rectangular hole. I guess that's ok, but I think it would have been better if they would have made a square hole for it. I called Haba to get a replacement (I initially thought that it didn't fit in any of the holes) but they explained how it is supposed to work & sent us a free toy for the trouble, $30 value (great customer service). If I didn't figure this out right away, I doubt an infant will but I like to think that the act of having to turn it sideways encourages problem solving & critical thinking at a young age.

I purchased this toy for my ten month baby. She loves being able to put the blocks inside without using the shape sorter just by opening the basket. I love this toy also because the blocks match the other block from Haba we already have.
