Battat Sort & Stack Nesting Cups Set - 19 Pieces Stacking Toy for Toddlers 18+ Months
This 19-piece nesting sorter set from Battat gives toddlers a playful introduction to colors, shapes, counting, and basic physics. It includes 10 brightly colored stacking cups, 8 chunky shapes, and a shape-sorting lid that turns the storage bucket into an interactive puzzle. Designed for children 18 months and older, it supports hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills, and problem solving through stacking, nesting, and sorting activities.
What's Inside the Nesting Sorter Set?
- 10 graduated stacking cups in rainbow colors, each labeled with a number (1–10) and an animal illustration
- 8 different plastic shapes (square, circle, star, triangle, and more) for sorting through the lid
- 1 shape-sorter lid that fits securely on the largest cup, turning it into a storage bin with a carry handle
How Does This Toy Support Early Learning?
Each cup features a different number and animal, so toddlers can practice counting and naming creatures as they stack. The bright colors help with color recognition, while matching shapes to the correct slot on the lid builds spatial awareness and logical thinking. Stacking the cups from largest to smallest introduces concepts like size comparison and cause and effect. These activities are designed to strengthen fine motor control and hand-eye coordination in a low-pressure, exploratory way.
Can This Toy Be Used in Water or Sand?
Yes. The cups are made from durable, worry-free materials that hold up well for bath time or outdoor sand play. Use them to scoop, pour, and build sandcastles—or bring them into the tub for floating fun. The handle makes it easy to carry everything to the beach, park, or playroom.
