A truly one-of-a-kind bag. Inside the single bag there are small wooden objects in pairs:
there are ten small solids:
- two small balls - two cuboids
- two small cubes - two long cuboids
- two small cylinders - two flat cuboids
- two small triangular prisms - two ovoids
- two triangular prisms
Take the bag, put your hand inside, and say what shape you feel, for example: “It's round.”
Ask the child: “What do you have in your bag?” Reach in and pull out the solid you found. “I have a ball, can you take out the ball too?” Tell the child it's their turn. For each shape pulled out, place it on the table. Continue this way, each taking out a solid in turn.
There are several variations on this game (discovering the shapes, naming them, etc.).
