Experts, teachers, books, doctors, all tell you the importance of children learning gross and fine motor skills...one of these is learning about putting in and taking out. Easy you say, but no! You read the magazines or articles, and they tell you that this toy is great or that rolling. talking, eating, blinking, light-up toy is better. So, sticking to your guns, you go with a classic-your basic no-frills, plastic Fisher Price shape sorter. Dumping out is no problem-this kid was born to dump! But putting in...hmmm. Not so much. Until one day, your little one gets into the trash and pulls out a soda cup and puts the straw in that little hole on the first try...

You know what? I think I may have had this problem with my oldest at least once! LOL!
Now if only they could develop a toy to keep kids from going through the trash...
I love the "old school" toys - no annoying batteries.
