Montessori Shape Sorter Truck | Play, Sort, and Drive 🚚 The Ultimate 2-in-1 Educational Toy.

Combine the excitement of a toy truck with the fundamental learning of a Montessori shape sorter. This Modular Shape Sorter Truck is designed to engage children in multiple ways: from assembling the vehicle to mastering complex shape recognition.

The trailer features a graduated peg system where children must match the correct geometric block to the corresponding number of pegs. It’s an excellent tool for developing counting skills, fine motor coordination, and problem-solving.

🧩 Modular Components Included This set is fully modular and uses 3D-printable screws for a satisfying mechanical assembly:

- The Cabin: A chunky, easy-to-grip truck head.

- The Trailer Bed: Equipped with 5 sorting stations.

- The Geometric Shapes: 5 different shapes with varying peg holes (Circle, Rectangle, Square, Hexagon, and Triangle).

- The Wheel System: 4 Rugged wheels with 3D-printed threaded axles for easy assembly.

🛠 Fully Customizable (Patreon Exclusive)
