NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC MAKEWAY
MAGNETIC MARBLE RUN

National Geographic Makeway Magnetic Marble Run - Explore physics and engineering with the eight different types of tracks and nine trick pieces, creating astonishing chain reactions and intricate paths for your marbles. First, select a combination of track, trick and connector pieces and arrange them creatively on any magnetic surface. Place a marble at the beginning of the course and watch it make its way down your track. As you experiment and create, simply move the pieces around to make adjustments, add new pathways or build new obstacles. Each track and trick has its own unique properties, but how to set them up is completely up to you—the possibilities are endless! -- website
