The Mushie Coin and Tube Sorting Set is a first sorting and posting toy for toddlers, giving little ones a set of colourful coins and tubes to drop through matching slots. It's the kind of hands-on, repeatable activity that busy hands come back to again and again — pop a piece in, open the lid, tip them out, and start over.
The set comes with a scalloped box, two interchangeable lids, and 20 colourful coins and tubes, all shaped for small hands. As your toddler lines up a piece and posts it through the right opening, they're getting plenty of practice with sorting, matching, and coordinating what they see with what their hands do — the everyday building blocks of early problem-solving play.
What makes it a good first sorter
The two interchangeable lids change up the challenge, so you can keep playtime feeling fresh as your child grows more confident. The scalloped design isn't just easy on the eye — it also gives the box an easy shape to grip and carry. It's compact and portable too, so it slips into a bag for play at home or on the go.
How it invites play
- Posting and matching: Children insert the coins and tubes through the matching slots, giving immediate physical feedback when a piece fits.
- Colour and shape play: The 20 colourful pieces provide plenty of scope for colour- and shape-matching games as you play alongside.
- Interchangeable lids: Swapping the two lids varies the openings, adding a little more challenge once the first version feels easy.
- Open and refill: Lifting the lid to retrieve the pieces turns each round into a satisfying cause-and-effect loop toddlers love to repeat.
Made to be handled and cleaned
The set is made from durable, non-toxic PP plastic that stands up to everyday handling, and it's BPA-, BPS-, PVC-, and phthalate-free. When it needs a freshen-up, simply wash with warm, soapy water and leave it to air dry.
