3. Postavljanje i priprema

1. Raspakujte komponente: Carefully remove all items from the packaging. Retain the packaging for future reference if needed.
2. Početno čišćenje: Before first use, wash all plastic components (test tubes, flask, funnel, tongs, dropper) with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry. This ensures cleanliness for safe play.
3. Review Activity Cards: Familiarize yourself with the 10 activity cards. Each card provides instructions for a different experiment. Gather any additional household ingredients required for your chosen experiment before starting.

4. Operating Instructions: Conducting Experiments

The GeoSafari Jr. Jungle Crew Lab Set is designed for interactive, hands-on learning. Follow the instructions on the activity cards for specific experiments. Here are general guidelines for using the tools:

• Pouring Liquids: Use the Lion and Cub Test Tubes and the Elephant Funnel to transfer liquids. The pour-spout mouths on the test tubes are designed to minimize spills.
• Measuring and Mixing: The Rhino Flask can be used for mixing ingredients. The test tubes can hold different liquids for comparison or sequential pouring.
• Transferring Small Amounts: The Monkey Dropper is ideal for transferring small quantities of liquid precisely. Squeeze the bulb completely before inserting into liquid, then release to draw liquid in. Squeeze again to dispense.
• Handling Objects: The Hippo Tongs can be used to pick up and manipulate small, non-hot objects. While they may be bulky for very small hands, practice improves dexterity.

Examples of experiments you can perform include "Slime Time," "Mini Lava Lamp," and "Rainbow Flowers," as detailed on the activity cards. Always ensure adult supervision during experiments.

5. Održavanje i njega

• čišćenje: After each use, especially after experiments involving food or colored liquids, wash all plastic components with warm, soapy water. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the integrity and appearance of the animal-themed designs. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before storing.
• Skladištenje: Store the lab set components in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Keeping the pieces together will help prevent loss and ensure they are ready for the next experiment.

• Dropper not picking up liquid: Ensure the bulb of the Monkey Dropper is fully squeezed to expel air before inserting the tip into the liquid. Release the bulb slowly to draw liquid in.
• Tongs difficult to use: The Hippo Tongs are designed for small hands but may require some practice to master. Encourage children to develop their fine motor skills through repeated use.
• Activity card instructions unclear: If an activity card's instructions are difficult to understand, try re-reading them carefully or searching for similar simple science experiments online for inspiration.
