During the winter season children spend a lot more time indoors and as parents, it’s our job to keep them busy and occupied. The new Marble Run from Discovery is the perfect building set to keep the kids entertained for hours and days at a time!

The Marble Run building set comes with 313 pieces, an instruction sheet and the cardboard storage box. It’s made for children ages 6 years and up. If you’re looking for educational toys and STEM building sets, this one is for you! It will help children with their math, science, technology and engineering skills.
With this set children will learn to design their own marble slide and the pieces mix and match for hours of kinetic fun! Once they have built the marble slide, they’ll race their marbles down the slide filled with twists and turns. The set comes with 10 marbles and 303 building pieces.
This set will help kids learn the fundamentals of engineering and design multi-level structures that send their marbles down the slide on a wild & fun journey. Every time they construct (build) the slide, it’s a new learning and play experience for them.
Fun Marble Facts:
– Marbles usually contain minerals, such as clay, micas, quartz, pyrite, iron oxides and graphite.
– Marbles are metaphoric rocks that form when limestone is subjected to heat & pressure of metamorphism. They’re composed primarily of mineral calcite and other minerals.
Yesterday I gave this building set to my 8 1/2 year old daughter and 11 year old nephew to play with. The age recommendation is for kids ages 6 & up, but I have to tell you, they will need some help and supervision with it. My husband had to help them get the building process started and once they saw how it was done, then they were able to take it over.
Marble Run is a great building set for the kids, especially during the winter season when they’ll be stuck indoors and will need something educational & fun to do. Children love building sets and I really think your kids will enjoy this one.
