How to use Shape Builder Safari

  1. Choose an animal template — Butterfly, Fish, Bird, Cat, House, or Rocket.
  2. Look at the dashed outlines showing where each shape belongs.
  3. Drag a colored shape from the tray at the bottom toward its matching outline.
  4. When the shape is close enough, it snaps into place!
  5. Complete all pieces to see the celebration. Press Reset to try again or pick another animal.

What is Shape Builder Safari?

Shape Builder Safari is a tangram-inspired puzzle game that teaches spatial reasoning and shape recognition. Kids drag colorful geometric pieces (circles, triangles, rectangles, and ellipses) from the shape tray onto target outlines to build recognizable objects.

Each template consists of 5-8 pieces that snap into place when positioned correctly. The forgiving snap radius means toddlers can succeed without pixel-perfect placement. Six animal and object templates provide variety, with a hint button to briefly show where the next unplaced piece belongs.
