This is a shape-sorter snail from Great-Grandma W. She also sent him a peek-a-block giraffe - you put peek-a-blocks in his head, and they fall out his feet. He loves peek-a-blocks! We got him the sight and sound sets, and he tinkers with them all the time. The giraffe came with the zoo animal set, and he really liked looking in at all those little faces!
