The Power of Shapes

Learning shapes is a vital part of a kid’s primary education.

Shapes are used to define an object and help identify it. 2 years old is a great age for teaching shapes. Start by teaching the basic shapes (square, circle, rectangle, triangle), then continue to more advanced shapes (oval, star, heart, diamond).

When kids explore different shapes, they are using one of the most basic educational processes: the observation of same and different. This concept provides them with a basic process that she will be able to use in observing, comparing and discussing all they sees and encounters. As children learn to identify shapes, they can sort and classify objects in around them based on these attributes. Shape matching is a simple engaging shape activity for preschoolers that helps them learn and remember. Teach them the vocabulary to describe shapes.

Shapes are also symbols. Capital letters are made mostly of circles and lines. The first step in understanding letters is the ability to know the difference between a circle and a square or rectangle. Provide your child with lots of paper and crayons to experiment with drawing lines and shapes. This shape drawing will naturally lead to writing letters.
