Say cheese
If you can hear the pitter patter of tiny feet, it might mean that you’ve just bought the new Cheese Sorter from Lamaze. Well known for catering to the littlest members of your household, the company’s latest release is a big block of yellow cheese, with three colourful mice.
Children aged six months and older can easily manipulate the soft toy, and will enjoy the different patterns and fabrics used to create the sides of the triangular cheese, and the little mice that go with it. The pesky little creatures (the mice, that is!) can pop in and out of the nibbled cheese, through holes in the side. Each cute mouse slots into its own side of the cheese, by matching the shapes and colours.
Babies can get plenty of practice with their fine motor skills as they master other skills such as sorting, matching and counting. The toy, which is priced around £12.99, should also hold their interest with lots of jingling, crinkling and squeaking noises.
