BASE AND REFLECTOR
We recommend that you follow this advice on cleaning Apple products and peripherals.
GAME PIECES
All game pieces can be gently wiped with a damp cloth if they get dirty.
If the pieces are made of cardboard, please be careful not to soak the cardboard.
Also, try not to let anything inside the movable pieces (in the Coding games).
Here are more specific instructions for some of the products.
Creative Board
Please only use dry erase or liquid chalk markers on the Creative Board. A damp paper towel can be used to clean the board. After heavy use, please clean with a whiteboard cleaner.
Based on customer feedback, products such as Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and Windex or any glass cleaner work great as well.
If they do NOT work, or if these products are not readily available, here are some other options:
- Vinegar and water solution
- Hydrogen peroxide
- 99% or 90% isopropyl alcohol
- Hand sanitizer
Creative Set Marker Pouch
Hand wash with mild soap.
Coding Blocks
Coding blocks are not dishwasher safe. Gently clean with wet wipe.
Detective Agency
If you accidentally spill liquids or water on the Detective Agency maps, towel dry the maps carefully, thoroughly and quickly to ensure no damage occurs. Pay special attention to the edges of the maps, which are more vulnerable to water damage.
Note that any kind of dry erase, wet erase, or other markers will permanently stain and ruin the maps.
Stackable Storage
The containers are not made of food grade plastic. Do not use them for food storage.
You can hand wash them with soap and water.
Sticks and Rings
Sticks and Rings may get slightly distorted after playing or storage. To reshape, bend the piece back to its original position.
Sticks and Rings are BPA-free and dishwasher safe, top rack. A nylon mesh bag is recommended to keep the pieces together.
Super Studio Booklets and Super Sweepers
Use only Super Studio markers with your notebook. Other art supplies will permanently stain the Super Sketchpad.
The marker contains magic ink that will disappear over time. If the marker leaves stains, clean with rubbing alcohol.
Prepare the Super Sweeper by lightly dampening and wringing out. Have a paper towel handy to wipe excess water.
You can hand wash the Super Sweeper with soap and water.
Math Wizard Cubes and Rods
Hand wash with mild soap.
Math Wizard Boxes, Wood Pieces and Balloons
Clean with a damp cloth. Make sure to dry them with some napkins or a dry cloth.
Math Wizard Mats
If you accidentally spill liquids or water on the mat, towel dry it carefully, thoroughly, and quickly to ensure no damage occurs. Pay special attention to the edges of the mat, which are more vulnerable to water damage.
Silicone Play Mats
The white silicone play mat (included in Little Genius Starter Kit and Sticks & Rings Set) should only be used as a play surface, and never drawn or painted on.
A damp paper towel can be used to clean the mat. If it's stained, please try one of the following options:
- Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and Windex or any glass cleaner
- Vinegar and water solution
- Hydrogen peroxide
- 99% or 90% isopropyl alcohol
- Hand sanitizer
Note that any kind of dry erase, wet erase, or other markers will permanently stain and ruin the mat.
Some of our game pieces have plastic versions available for use in educational settings.
If you're unable to clean a heavily used game piece, we may be able to replace it. Please submit a request following these instructions.
