3. Operating Instructions
The Smoby Green Magic Tower is designed for intuitive play, encouraging children to explore and learn through interaction.
3.1 Stacking the Tumblers
To build the tower, place the largest tumbler on a flat, stable surface. Then, progressively place the next largest tumbler on top of the previous one. Continue this process until all six tumblers are stacked, forming a tall tower. Children can experiment with different stacking orders to understand size relationships.

3.2 Nesting the Tumblers
To nest the tumblers, place the smallest tumbler inside the next largest one. Continue this process until all tumblers are nested within each other, forming a compact unit. This activity helps children understand spatial relationships and order.

3.3 Educational Play
Encourage children to identify the different colors of the tumblers and the unique engraved icons on each cup. These icons aid in shape recognition and provide tactile stimulation. The tumblers are suitable for various play environments, including indoor play, bath time, or sand play.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
To clean the Smoby Green Magic Tower tumblers, wipe them with a damp cloth using mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storage or next use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the material.
4.2 Storage
When not in use, nest the tumblers together to save space. Store the toy in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve its material integrity and colors.
5. Troubleshooting
5.1 Missing or Damaged Parts
If any tumblers are missing from the packaging or appear damaged upon arrival, do not use the product. Contact the retailer or Smoby customer support for a replacement or assistance.
5.2 Difficulty Stacking
If a child is having difficulty stacking the tumblers, demonstrate the correct order from largest at the bottom to smallest at the top. Encourage experimentation, as there is no single "correct" way to play, but guiding them can help develop their understanding of size and balance.
