Description: The Excellerations magnetic color sorting boards with cupcake cut-outs are used to teach color and sorting to young children. The board is made of plywood. A clear plastic cover is attached to the board by rivets, and a wand with a magnet in one end is attached to the top of the board by a plastic cord. The face of the board has one jar-shaped cut-out and six cupcake-shaped cut-outs that are red, yellow, blue, green, orange and purple.
