Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin play, simply place the wooden game board on a flat surface and arrange the 12 magnetic animals near the board. No batteries or external power sources are required. For care, wipe the wooden pieces with a slightly damp cloth if they become soiled; avoid submerging the pieces in water to protect the integrity of the wood and the printed illustrations. Always ensure the magnetic rod is stored safely in a dry area after use to maintain the strength of the magnets. Keep the set away from extreme heat or humidity to prevent the wooden board from warping.
