Troubleshooting

Markers are not sticking to the board.

Ensure you are using the magnetic markers provided with the game and that the board surface is clean and dry. The tin itself is magnetic.

Difficulty understanding the "Things" on the cards.

The game is designed to spark conversation. If a child struggles with a concept, the caller can offer simple explanations or examples related to that emotion or feeling.

Game pieces are missing.

Check inside the tin thoroughly, as smaller pieces can sometimes get lodged in corners. If pieces are permanently lost, contact the manufacturer for potential replacements.
