I just bought this for my 4 year old grandson for Christmas. I tried it out but can't get the bases to snap together. What am I doing wrong?

The green base gets placed on a table or FLAT SURFACE. You have to apply pressure to get the base pieces to fit together, but they will fit together. Apply a good amount of force or get someone stronger to press the base pieces together.

Sometimes they are a little stiff when new. Maybe try wiggling them and that millwork.

They shouldn't snap into each other, but should slide down into each other, locking in place. Otherwise, I don't know

I believe your best approach would be to watch the video on demonstrations as suggested by JH. Don't exactly understand what your problem is but my 5 yr. old grandson was able to operate the game without difficulty.

I gave the Snap Circuit to a grandson so I had to call him for an answer. He told me that there was only one base...but you can make several different things on the base. Hope this helps.

My grandson, who is 7, and I built the set. We both worked together and made sure that that we put the model together correctly. There are a couple of tricky parts, but everything is clearly illustrated.

It's supposed to snap together, but we had difficulties! Make sure the little slots end up on the right sides or the wrap around cover does not work. You are not missing anything, just some elbow grease. (My husband ended up using screws and put it together all wrong.)

my 4 yr old grandson just puts them in the top & close it. Sometimes it takes a bit of patience to get it going.

No, my grandsons do not have that problem. They have been playing with this game for 2 months. Sorry you are having a problem.

I bought two of these for each of my sons. They said instructions WERE in the box and it was very simple to put together. Very sturdy and they are thoroughly enjoying them. Perhaps call the manufacturer and see if instructions were left out by accident.... Sorry you are having trouble, but once you get them together, you won't regret the purchase. Hope you're able to enjoy it!!

hold each side towards the middle (top) gently pull apart and/push together to make bigger or smaller. Good Luck

I think you'd have to contact Bergan for that. I haven't seen the toy anywhere but online. Ive heard they've shipped separate non-working pieces to people if there's been an issue fitting them together.

The holes on the base can be a bit out of alignment like happened to me. Turn the base bottom side up and do a little twisting of the heavy weight to make it work. Hope this helps.

You have to press them in to the base far enough to engage the snap ring. If you are pressing them in as far as possible and they are still falling out you may have defective parts. There will becan audible "click" when the wheel casters are all the way in.

might be a little hard for him to snap the pieces together. and might not understand enough about "structure" to be able to build a car that holds together. It will depends on how much he builds with things already - blocks, legos. these are a bit trickier - b/c they are more like joints and can bend every which way vs. a blocks that are straight on top of each other. better for 5+

I have 2 of these units and both were easy to assemble, maybe the plastic fingers that fit together may have a bur or possibly the plastic did not mold correctly, good luck !

Melt down on the way! With over 100 pieces, you should expect to sit down with him and put the marble run together. I work with special needs children all day and they love the marble run. Some times the run gets destroyed and we put it away for a few days. When I bring it out again, the children enjoy it for a long time. It will fall apart when you apply pressure or too much weight to the towering pieces. Try building it a little at a time, checking to insure that the pieces are installed in the right direction, then add to your design. Good luck! I hope you have as much fun as we have!

I think if it's not fitting, it's not lined up correctly. It did not immediately line up but after playing with it, it did line up and works perfectly although loudly with my 2 yr old grandson in charge.
