Description
Endless Engineering Fun on Any Magnetic Surface
The National Geographic Magnetic Marble Run is a wildly creative and interactive STEM kit that takes marble mazes to a whole new level. With 42 tracks and connectors, 17 trick pieces, and 15 marbles, this set offers infinite combinations and endless opportunities for dynamic, hands-on fun. Designed to be built on any vertical magnetic surface—like fridges, lockers, whiteboards, or workbenches—this one-of-a-kind marble run brings excitement and innovation to engineering and physics exploration.
How It Works
Using the innovative magnetic connectors, kids and adults alike can design and build intricate marble mazes with astonishing chain reactions. Start by selecting a combination of tracks, tricks, and connectors, then arrange them creatively on a magnetic surface. Place a marble at the top of your course and watch it navigate the twists, turns, and obstacles you’ve created. Experiment with different setups, adjust pathways, and add new challenges to keep the fun going. Each track and trick piece has unique properties, but how you use them is entirely up to you—the possibilities are endless!
Learn While You Play
This isn’t just a marble maze; it’s a hands-on engineering kit that encourages problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration. As you build and fine-tune your track, you’ll explore concepts like Newton’s laws of motion, gravity, and energy. The included illustrated Learning Guide provides fascinating insights into the science behind the fun, helping you think like an engineer while you play.
Perfect for All Ages
The National Geographic Magnetic Marble Run is designed for both kids and adults, making it a fantastic way for families, friends, or coworkers to connect and collaborate. Its Rube Goldberg machine-style play is not only super satisfying but also a great way to spark curiosity and creativity.
Convenient and Portable
The set’s unique vertical design means less clutter on the floor, and the included durable storage bag keeps all the pieces and marbles safe and secure. Whether you’re building in the kitchen, office, or classroom, this marble run is easy to set up, take down, and store.
The National Geographic Magnetic Marble Run is a thrilling and educational STEM kit that combines creativity, engineering, and physics in one engaging package. With its endless possibilities and collaborative appeal, it’s the perfect way to inspire young minds and bring people together through the magic of play!
