About this activity

Find the Named Shape is a shape-recognition game for children ages 4–5 that combines listening and matching. Children press a button to hear a shape name spoken aloud, then find and tap the matching shape among five options — circle, square, triangle, oval, and rectangle — each shown in a different color, sharpening the ability to recognize a shape by its outline rather than its color.
