Tupperware: Shape-O-Toy

A toy from Tupperware? Who could have guessed. 

The Tupperware Shape-O-Toy helps shape young minds. It allows toddlers to identify shapes, develop coordination and dexterity. (yes I got this off its brochure).




You can tell it's Tupperware just by its packaging (in multi languages)






Ok. So, it looks good but what's so different about this toy compared to the rest?




Lets go back to the box. Interesting. And I thought I had the toy figured.




1) Ball

Tick. Smooth and rolls like a charm.

2) Shapes and Corresponding Holes

Tick. Main purpose of this toy.



3) Numbers and Corresponding Dots

Tick and Tick.

We also counted and lined up the numbers.


The Shape-O-Toy then became a bowling ball. Kids and toys. They find ways..





4) Mould 

Tick. Why didn't I think of this one?



The ball is definitely easy to handle. Just be careful if you let your child open and close it. 




The little chickadee having two hand-me-downs of the same kind of toy goes to show that parents like this sort of thing for their kids.




So out of the three, how does the Shape-O-Toy stand out?

1) It feels great. It's smooth and gloss where the rest is more plastic. 

2) Definitely more durable. I mean we were encouraged to rattle and play ball with it. One of the chickadee's older twist-and-lock is having difficulty doing just that.


3) It's Tupperware. You know it's non-toxic and as safe as Tupperware knows best.


4) It has its own handles. 


I guess when Tupperware throws you a ball, you just know you are in for a good time.
