Designed to sit directly on any light panel, this acrylic discovery board transforms a familiar shape-sorting activity into an illuminated, visually rich experience that holds children's attention and deepens their engagement with shape, pattern, and spatial reasoning. Available across North America through The Sensory Supply, it is a versatile light panel accessory for early years classrooms, occupational therapy settings, sensory rooms, and home learning environments alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe board includes eight distinct geometric shapes, each matched to a corresponding cut-out space. The translucent acrylic construction allows the light from below to pass through each piece, creating a glowing effect that adds a powerful visual stimulus to every interaction. Children discover which shape fits which space through hands-on trial, building shape recognition and spatial awareness with every attempt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eKey Features of the TTS Lightbox Acrylic Shape Sorting Board\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eAcrylic construction\u003c\/em\u003e - Durable, translucent material that transmits light beautifully from beneath, creating a visually stimulating glow that holds attention and enriches the shape-sorting experience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e8 geometric shapes included\u003c\/em\u003e - A varied set of distinct forms matched to corresponding board spaces, supporting shape recognition and early geometry understanding in a hands-on, concrete way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCompatible with any light panel\u003c\/em\u003e - Works with any standard LED light panel or light table, meaning it integrates immediately into any existing lightbox setup in a classroom, therapy room, or sensory environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eAcetates included\u003c\/em\u003e - Allows activities to be modified and adapted to different educational themes, curriculum objectives, or individual children's interests without any additional materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDownloadable activity templates\u003c\/em\u003e - Expands the board's educational range well beyond shape sorting, enabling educators to create bespoke patterns, hide pictures, or incorporate letters, numbers, animals, and more beneath the shapes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCritical thinking development\u003c\/em\u003e - Encourages children to problem-solve, test hypotheses, and self-correct as they discover which shape belongs where, building early logical reasoning through play\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eEYFS curriculum support\u003c\/em\u003e - Aligned with Early Years Foundation Stage learning outcomes covering blocks, shapes, puzzles, and shape sorters, making it a directly relevant classroom resource for early years and preschool educators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eSkills Your Child Develops with the TTS Lightbox Shape Sorting Board\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eShape Recognition\u003c\/em\u003e - Matching eight distinct geometric shapes to their correct spaces strengthens children's understanding of form and spatial relationships, building a foundational geometry concept in a tactile, engaging way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eFine Motor Skills\u003c\/em\u003e - Picking up, manipulating, and placing individual acrylic shapes develops hand and finger strength, precision grip, and dexterity -- the same small-muscle coordination children need for writing, dressing, and daily self-care tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHand-Eye Coordination\u003c\/em\u003e - Guiding each shape piece into its corresponding slot requires the brain and hand to work together with increasing accuracy, building a motor-visual integration skill that transfers directly to drawing, cutting, and tool use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCritical Thinking \u0026amp; Problem Solving\u003c\/em\u003e - The trial-and-discovery nature of shape sorting invites children to observe, predict, test, and correct, developing early logical reasoning and a patient, systematic approach to challenges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe glowing surface adds a sensory layer that goes beyond conventional shape puzzles.

Hide pictures of animals, vehicles, numbers, or letters beneath the shapes and reveal them as each piece is lifted. Layer acetates over the board to shift the theme from geometry to storytelling to science. Download and print custom templates to align activities with any curriculum focus or individual child's interests. This flexibility makes the TTS Lightbox Shape Sorting Board a resource that grows with a classroom rather than one that gets left on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eIdeal for early years classrooms and daycare centres, occupational therapy clinics and sensory rooms, home learning environments, parents building enriched play spaces, and neurodiverse and neurotypical children aged 3 and up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eProduct includes: 1 x Shape Sorting Board, 8 x Shapes, acetates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eMaterial: Acrylic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eDimensions: H29 x L41 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAge range: Suitable for ages 3 to 11 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSafety note: Not suitable for children under 36 months - small parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"TTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46263610769658,"sku":"EY07282","price":159.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/5885\/5162\/files\/tts-lightbox-acrylic-shape-sorting-board-light-panel.jpg?v=1777310358","url":"https:\/\/thesensorysupply.com\/en-us\/products\/tts-lightbox-acrylic-shape-sorting-board","provider":"The Sensory Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
