Every toddler has to have a set of sorting blocks, but I'll be damned if I let my kid play with Brio's new spin on a classic.
The Brio Shape Sorting Box is small, shiny and sports clean lines. Combine it with the pink, a chartreuse and hot red blocks, and you've got yourself a nice piece of modern art for a kid's bedroom.
I'm sure the Brio Box would be a big help in teaching them shapes and colors. But I'd never let my sons play with these blocks -- they'd get their fingerprints smudged all over the place. No way. No how.
