MindWare Marble Run

My boys love any new toy they get, what kid doesn’t?!?! I received a MindWare catalog in the mail the other day and every time I look through it, we mark pages, circle toys and go through the entire thing with my boys and make a wish list. They offer brainy toys for kids of all ages and I love the science and educational toys. After looking through the catalog and online for several days, we all decided to order the Marble Run and add on set ($39.95), something even I can enjoy with the kids.

Marble run includes chutes, tubes and spinners that connect together to make a super fun roller coaster for marbles and includes 126-pieces with 22 marbles. It was like Christmas morning when we got all together and opened up marble run. My boys are all five and two-years-old so my husband and I did the majority of the work putting it together, which took about 35 minutes to use every piece. Once together we all took turns dropping the marbles down the tubes and seeing them race to the bottom. The boys have played with this everyday and it keeps their attention longer than I expected.

After putting this together we kept it on the floor which worked great but I made the mistake of lifting it up to put it on the table for a minute and my two-year-old accidentally knocked it off the table, sigh. So back in the box it went for the time being. Next time I want to help them build something different, maybe build it on a few stairs, that sounds like fun!

Award winning MindWare offers quality games, puzzles, brainteasers, arts and crafts activities, mysteries, mazes and a ton more. MindWare also offers a 100% satisfaction guaranteed! If you are not happy with any item for any reason you can exchange or return the item.
