Learning and fun

Shapes & Colours

Name nine shapes and six colours, then find them in a row. Each colour has its own pattern, so no card needs colour alone. English and Bulgarian, no sound.

For young children learning shapes, their sides and corners, and the names of colours. Each card shows one or a few shapes and asks about them, then names the shape and its colour. Every colour also has its own pattern, so no card relies on colour alone. English and Bulgarian, with no sound.
