™
requires 3 AA batteries (not included).
The battery compartment is located on the bottom of the
control unit housing on the right side. To install batteries,
first undo the screw (use a Phillips screwdriver) and slide the
battery compartment door to the right. Install batteries as
indicated inside the compartment. (See back of guide for

How to Play:
First place the mat on the floor. Turn the mat on, set
difficulty level. You will hear Alpha-Bug say, "Hi! Good to
see you! Choose an activity! Step on my shoe!"
Choose a game by stepping on one of Alpha-Bug’s shoes!
Alpha-Bug’s shoes are labeled as:
DISCOVER
,
SPELL
,
ABC
SONG
, and
MUSIC
. You’ll notice that Alpha-Bug is also
holding a flag that says,
CHANGE GAME
. Step on
CHANGE
GAME
at any time to switch games.
Answer a question by stepping on a different letter on the
mat. There are two chances to answer each question
correctly. If you answer the same question incorrectly twice,
don’t worry! Alpha-Bug will move on to a new question.
To start a new game, step on the
