Shape Tray Toy for Baby

thingiverse

Made a shape tray toy for my 4 month old to play with so he can practice fine motor skills and eventually learn shapes and colours. The tray is large and bulky to make it harder to toss on the floor. It's also nicely rounded to make it nicer to touch. The shapes are nicely rounded and beveled we well to remove any sharp edges and corners. Print the shapes in different colors for some visual interest. After several months of use now the toy has held up very well. It gets washed in warm soapy water occasionally and looks brand new even though it all ends up on the floor from high chair height. Fusion360 file included in case you'd like to make some adjustments. **NOTE: I've tried to make the pieces large enough to not be choking hazards, but if you're at all concerned about that try scaling up the pieces and tray by 5% or so. As with any baby toy, it's up to you to keep them safe, so always supervise them when they are playing.** If you'd like to test the pieces for choking potential you can try this printed choke hazard tester: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3298630
