Shapes are amazing!

Yes, they are!

And each one of them

is without par!


Shapes inspire ideas! Shapes illuminate solutions! Shapes illumine new perspectives!


Imagine! Your young child comes across a poster that presents the basic shapes. Is your child excited? Is he/she in any way inspired? Far from it! The shapes are lifeless and immovable. They are stuck on the wall as matter-of-fact designs. You child glazes over the groups of lines and then moves on to find something more entertaining and worthwhile. But WAIT! Shapes ARE worth their while. Yes, they seem like uninteresting designs, but these are designs that have been esteemed and loved for thousands of years.The artifacts big and small of the ancient world are replete with these shapes. And even today, shapes have far reaches in the world of architecture, art, math, and science. The influence they have is still great, and the potential they carry for a creative child is enormous! So imagine. Your young child comes across Miss Anna's Shape Story 1. The eyes grow big and twinkle as these shapes talk, trapeze in the air, and blow bubbles with their friends. Your child learns their names and starts to see shapes in everything. And then, your child starts to wonder... 'What can I build with shapes?'
