{"product_id":"fruit-veggie-color-sorting-plush-set","title":"Fruit \u0026 Veggie Color Sorting Set, Soft Plush Sensory Toy","description":"\u003cp\u003eRed apple, red pepper, red strawberry, red basket. That is the whole game, and a three-year-old will run it for twenty minutes without being asked twice. Four soft baskets, each one labeled with its color and stitched in a different weave, and twelve plush fruits and vegetables with faces on them. Fill the baskets. Tip them out. Start again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is made to be handled. The pineapple is a tight bobbled knit, the broccoli is a shaggy pom, the corn peels back into its leaves, the avocado splits into two halves. Some of them crinkle when you squeeze them, some carry a small rattle inside. Nothing here plugs in, nothing here has a volume button, and nothing here needs you to find a screwdriver and two AA batteries on a Sunday morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThree versions of the same idea\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eColor Sorting Baskets\u003c\/strong\u003e is the full sixteen-piece set, four baskets and twelve fruits and vegetables. The \u003cstrong\u003eVegetable Farm Planter\u003c\/strong\u003e swaps the baskets for a soft planter box you pull the carrots, the radish and the mushrooms straight out of, then push back in for the next round. The \u003cstrong\u003eFruit Tree \u0026amp; Play Mat\u003c\/strong\u003e pairs a plush fruit basket with a printed mat for laying pieces out and counting them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat it is actually good at\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmall hands get a lot of practice here without anyone calling it practice. Pinching a strawberry out of a basket, peeling the orange open, pushing a carrot back into its hole, deciding whether the avocado belongs with the green things. The pieces are sized for a three-year-old grip, between one and a half and five inches, and they are light enough that a full basket travels in a diaper bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLiving with it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe baskets double as the cleanup. When play is over, everything goes back into four soft containers that stack, which is a very different end to the evening than picking plastic out of a rug. It is quiet enough to hand over during a phone call and soft enough to survive being thrown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe maker marks this set for ages three to six.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whiz Toys","offers":[{"title":"Color Sorting Baskets, 16 Pieces","offer_id":54250723803500,"sku":null,"price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Vegetable Farm Planter","offer_id":54250723836268,"sku":null,"price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fruit Tree \u0026 Play Mat","offer_id":54250723869036,"sku":null,"price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/1966\/4236\/files\/gal_01.jpg?v=1787753646","url":"https:\/\/whiz-toys.com\/products\/fruit-veggie-color-sorting-plush-set","provider":"Whiz Toys","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
