Using this playset is super easy. First, decide which mode you want to play - Frank Escape or Stunt Race. For Frank Escape, place Lightning McQueen at the start and the Frank vehicle behind. Let Lightning McQueen go and watch as it moves straight, knocking over the tractor and the sign. For Stunt Race, set up the ramp and put the hay bales in place. Then use Frank as a launcher to send Lightning McQueen over the hay bales. Remember, when you're done playing, keep all the pieces in a safe place so you don't lose them. To keep the cars in good shape, just wipe them with a soft cloth. Also, since it's for kids aged 4 and up, make sure younger kids don't put the small parts in their mouths. Have a great time playing!
