Using this sand art toy is super easy. First, choose a design you want to make, like a mandala or a landscape. Then, gently pour the sand into the designated areas of the art base. You can create different patterns and colors by using the sand provided. As you pour, try to be as precise as you can to get a nice - looking design. Remember, this toy is for ages 5 and up, so adult supervision might be needed for younger kids. When you're done creating, don't shake the toy too hard to keep your design intact. To keep the toy in good condition, store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight. If the sand gets a bit messy, you can use a small brush to clean it up. Have a great time creating with your sand art toy!
