Product Information

Full details

The Early Learning Centre Giant Activity Aqua Mat is designed for toddlers aged 18 months and up, offering a mess-free creative drawing experience. Its key benefit is the water-reveal color technology that allows for endless drawing and reusability. A potential caveat is the need for adult supervision during filling and use of the water pens. This large mat encourages fine motor skills and creativity by letting children scribble, draw, and discover hidden animals, with drawings disappearing as it dries, making it ready for the next play session.

Troubleshooting

Pen not drawing colors

Ensure the pen is filled with enough water and the tip is securely attached. Check that the water has fully saturated the felt tip.

Mat not drying

Allow more time for drying, especially in humid environments. Ensure the mat is laid flat and not bunched up. A gentle wipe with a dry cloth may help.

Water leaking from pen

Check that all parts of the pen are screwed together tightly. If leakage persists, try a different pen or ensure the reservoir is not overfilled.

Colors are faint

The water may be too cold or not fully saturated. Try using lukewarm water or ensuring the felt tip is thoroughly wet.
