Because my son has needed a good amount of therapy to meet his milestone, we have collected a lot of developmental toys. We have found sorting toys to be both helpful to teach colors, shapes and numbers.

Some of the other skills these toys teach are

• fine motor skills
• co-ordination
  
• problem solving
• matching
• animal recognition
• pretend play

Here are 10 creative toys we like that teach all of these skills.
