Questions parents ask

Which shapes should a child know before first grade?

Circle, square, triangle and rectangle are the core. Star, heart and pentagon come later and widen the vocabulary.

What age should we start?

Around 2–3 children match shapes; by 4 they can name them.

Are 3D shapes included?

Yes — cone, cylinder and pyramid are here too, for children who already know the flat ones.
