5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Reversible Tabletop

The tabletop features two distinct surfaces:

• Building Brick Base: One side is designed with studs compatible with both Duplo-sized and regular Lego-sized building bricks, allowing for diverse construction projects.
• Flat Whiteboard Surface: The other side provides a smooth, flat surface suitable for drawing with dry erase markers, general play, or as a base for magnetic tiles.

To reverse the tabletop, simply lift it from the table body, flip it to the desired side, and place it back into position.

5.2 Magnetic Tile Play

Utilize the included 60 magnetic tiles to construct various 3D structures directly on the flat whiteboard surface or independently. The tiles feature 360° magnetic connections, allowing for stable and creative builds. The included magnetic characters can also interact with the magnetic tiles.
