Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, lay out the included tile-by-number pictures and organize the 14 sheets of foam tiles. Ensure the work area is well-lit so children can easily differentiate between the numbers and colors. While the foam tiles are self-adhesive, it is recommended to keep the finished mosaics in a cool, dry place to ensure the adhesive bond stays strong over time. No additional supplies are needed to complete the project, though keeping a small tray or container for the removed tile backings can help keep the workspace tidy.
