Troubleshooting

Dice are difficult for a child to roll.

Encourage the child to roll the dice on a slightly textured surface like a rug, or assist them by rolling the dice for them initially.

Child is struggling to understand the game rules.

Start by playing with the child, demonstrating how to read the dice and find the corresponding bird. Focus on one attribute (e.g., color) at a time before combining shape and size.

Some birds are missing.

Double-check the packaging and the game area. If birds are irretrievably lost, contact the manufacturer for replacement parts if available.

Paint on birds is chipping.

Handle the pieces with care. For minor chips, do not attempt to repaint. Ensure the game is stored properly to prevent further damage.
