Usage Recommendations

Place the stones on a level surface and space them according to the child’s stride and confidence. For younger toddlers, arrange stones closer together and keep sessions short to maintain engagement. When moving to more challenging patterns, increase distance or add turns to promote lateral stepping and direction changes. Consider supervising outdoor use on firm ground because softer surfaces may change the feel of the stones and their stability, according to the manufacturer.
