Troubleshooting
Activity cube is unstable or wobbles.
Ensure the cube is placed on a flat, level surface. Check that all wooden components are securely fitted and not loose.
Magnetic spider does not adhere to the web.
Wipe both the magnet on the spider and the web surface with a dry cloth to remove any dust or debris that may be interfering with the magnetic connection.
Pieces for the shape sorter are difficult to insert.
Ensure the correct shape is being used for the corresponding hole. Encourage gentle guidance rather than force. Check for any obstructions within the shape sorter holes.
Sound features are not working.
These are designed for gentle sound stimulation. Ensure the child is manipulating the parts correctly (e.g., spinning the moon button). If a specific sound element seems damaged, contact customer support.
