THANK YOU!
Thank you for choosing the Melissa & Doug Multi-Activity Play Table! It's a terrific way to help nurture a
child's creativity
and imagination, and to inspire hands-on independent play for years to come.
NOW IT'S TIME TO PUT IT TOGETHER!
Don't worry, assembling your new table is simple, and we're here to help. It may go a little faster with a
partner to lend a hand, but we've made it so one person can assemble the table. l-lere are a few tips before
you begin:
•Read
through all the instructions first.
•
Clear a flat, covered space (carpeted is best) to lay out all the materials so everything is close at hand.
•You
will need a Phillips head and flat head screwdriver (not included) to assemble the table. We've
included everything else you need. All parts are labeled with a sticker (A-V).
•
The instructions include lots of helpful pictures-we show you, step-by-step, how to align pieces and parts
for speedy and accurate assembly. Note that the hardware needed for each step is shown in the upper
right corner of the page, each piece being added in a given step is highlighted in gray, and the "assembled
view" (what it looks like in the completed product when the step is completed) is included in the lower
right
corner of every page.
•
In the instructions, the name of a part is followed by a letter in parentheses. This letter corresponds to
the sticker on the part, as well as the picture of the part shown on pages 2-3.
•l-lelpful hints
are highlighted with a large exclamation point.
IMPORTANT: Helpful hints
are found here.
•
If you have any questions, we're here for you! Give our customer service team a call at 1-800-284-3948!

not allow children to pull, climb, sit, or stand on any part of the table.
