This shape and colour sorting game can be used to familiarise children with sorting by shape and by colour, practising the language of sorting and the logic of the grid as you go. We've also provided a completed game board so that the children can check whether they have placed the cards correctly. Laminate the game board and the cards (and the completed game board) and keep in a ziploc bag for repeat use.
