💡 How to Play
- Set up the Light Table Insert and Acrylic Block Insert on your IKEA Flisat Sensory Table.
- Invite your child to use translucent blocks to build different animals — maybe a giraffe, elephant, or a funny monster!
- Once the shapes are ready, hand them a dry erase marker to draw eyes, mouths, or other details directly on the insert — “draw the spirit into life”!
- Watch the animals glow beautifully under the light table.
✨Simple setup, open-ended play, and endless creativity — a must-try for every light table lover!
