Answer 2

You could offer different shaped dishes in the kitchen area.  This would prompt talk about the shapes.  Like different shaped bowls for example.  You could also have cookie cutters in the kitchen area for "cooking" with that are shapes.  I have shape blocks, and sometimes the kids take these into the kitchen area and they are brought into their play (they can be food, or whatever).  A school setting could be offered with shape stencils, magnets, etc.  All the other stuff that goes along with school should be offered and the kids will use the shape stuff as part of their play.  Hope this helps.  Also offer play dough- and shape cookie cutters. I have also done this, and it brings up "teachable moments" because I do not believe in flashcards and drilling kids!
