How to Use

Begin by introducing the individual pieces to your child, identifying the different sizes and colors of the stacking rings. Encourage your child to stack the discs in the correct order to form the rocket’s fuselage. Once the structure is stable, place the small astronaut inside the designated compartment for liftoff. This toy can be used for independent play or as a collaborative tool to teach basic counting and color identification.

Care & Safety

To maintain the integrity of the natural wood, wipe the pieces with a clean, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Do not soak the toy or submerge it in water, as moisture can cause the wood to swell or warp. Store the rocket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the organic dyes from fading. This product should be used under adult supervision, especially for younger children who may still be exploring objects with their mouths.
