User questions & answers

Question:	Does the card swiping machine make noise
Answer:	No. W The book is a special paper/plastic material. It doesn’t stick to wood but o notice it does stick to my fridge and windows but you will have to press hard for them to stay
Question:	Does it come with any accessories
Answer:	It is a vinyl cling sticker set, so the stickers could be stuck on a window or other smooth plastic surface. They are removable. The background scenes are removable from the pad and I would recommend removing them and mounting them on heavy poster board to protect them from bending and ripping.
Question:	Does the box that is delivered by amazon show the contents
Answer:	We are actually ordering these for our 2 year-old after seeing our 6 year-old niece playing with them. Younger kids go nuts for them, but older kids love them, too!
Question:	What size batteries are needed
Answer:	Hi there, it swings open & closed, there is no latch.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the paint non-toxic
Answer:	It is made of hard plastic. I believe getting it wet would not be a problem.
Question:	Will the animals stick to the barn or fall thru
Answer:	Hi Jennifer! Of course it will hold lightning bugs (or fireflies, whatever you call them)...or any other small flying insects! Have some fun in the great outdoors!
Question:	Is it made in USA
Answer:	Yes! We used it for caterpillars, but it would definitely hold lady bugs!
Question:	Where are these made
Answer:	The stickers are intended to be used on the pad that is included with the set. They probably won't stick on other surfaces because they are really not "sticky". They are plastic and might stick on metal like a refrigerator but not on paper, etc. I hope that answers your question, Elsie.
