1. Take an unfolded flat block. Fold all creases (shown as dotted lines) slightly inward.
2. Raise panels (A) toward the center of the block. At point (B), tuck flaps (C) inward. Create a triangular tower. Repeat with the other end and another flap (B).
3. Fold up the tabs (D). Fold the tabs (D) toward the center of the block, inserting sliding tabs (G) into the slots between (A) and (B).
4. Fold down (D) and insert (F) into the slots.
5. Press down (D) until tabs E and F are inserted into slots totally.
6. You have completed assembly of one block. Repeat with other blocks.

*Note: The instructions show the large red block, but the steps are identical for the smaller blue and green blocks.*

Operating Instructions

These jumbo cardboard blocks offer endless possibilities for creative play:

• Building Structures: Construct towers, walls, houses, and forts. The varying sizes allow for diverse architectural designs.
• Stacking and Balancing: Challenge children to stack blocks as high as possible, promoting hand-eye coordination and problem-solving.
• Imaginative Play: Use the blocks as props for role-playing games, such as building a castle for knights or a garage for toy cars.

The blocks are designed to be sturdy, allowing for active play like stepping and balancing, enhancing gross motor skills.

Children can build large and complex structures, fostering creativity and spatial reasoning.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning: Wipe blocks with a dry cloth to remove dust or light dirt. Avoid using water or harsh cleaning agents, as this may damage the cardboard.
• Storage: Store blocks in a dry environment away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent warping or damage.
• Handling: While durable, excessive force or rough handling can damage the blocks. Encourage gentle play.

Safety Information
