{"product_id":"goula-colour-forms-shape-matching-game","title":"Goula Colour Forms – Wooden Shape Matching Game, Ages 3+","description":"\u003cp\u003eColour Forms is a wooden shape matching game where children slot 22 coloured pieces onto a base to recreate the picture on an illustrated sheet. Eight double-sided sheets give sixteen designs in total, and once those are finished the base becomes a blank canvas for letters, numbers and inventions of their own. It is built for ages 3 and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo ways to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe guided mode is straightforward: pick a sheet, fix it to the base with the wooden sticks, and fill the outlines with matching shapes. The freestyle mode removes the sheet entirely, and the included guide shows how to build every letter and digit from the same 22 pieces. Most children start guided and drift into freestyle within a few weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is actually training\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatching shape and colour to a printed target\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpatial orientation — noticing that a rotated triangle is still the same triangle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePincer grip and controlled placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEarly letter and number formation before pencil work begins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStaying with a task through to a finished picture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDiagonals are the hard part\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParents often notice a child manages horizontal and vertical placements easily but stalls on diagonal lines. That is completely normal, because diagonal discrimination develops later than the other two.
