Learning ResourcesTumble Trax Magnetic Marble Run, STEM Toy, 28 Piece Set, Ages 5+

My daughter is obsessed with this. She puts it on our fridge, and she sets it up all different ways. Want to keep a kid busy for a little while? This is it.

I have bought a few different sets of these! Not only do I love them for my students, but my own personal children love playing with them as well. The options are so great for small groups to follow directions off cards, or to get creative and use their own ideas to make new tracks for the marbles. Love them!

Magnets are strong, they aren't flimsy, very creative designs they give you, my kids are aged 1 and 5 they both love it. Balls are too small, we lose them easily and only came with 4.

I truly appreciate this concept and product for fostering problem-solving skills in my four-year-old. However, I deducted one star due to the magnet's strength, as it tends to detach from the fridge when my child lightly nudges it while reaching for the ball. Additionally, I would prefer the balls to be slightly larger, as I have concerns about leaving my child unsupervised with small marbles. Overall, I believe this is an excellent gift, but it would benefit from a stronger magnet and perhaps a version designed specifically for younger children.

This is a pretty great toy set. It’s imaginative and fun as well as inventive. All our kids ages 2-7 like playing with it. They love to race the marbles down the tracks and will do so for a long time.It comes with a set of laminated cards you can use for inspiration. Our youngest liked these a lot and I was surprised how well they could follow the card to make a track. It made it a toy they could use without me!! Though we use it a great deal together.The pieces are light but sturdy made of foam and have taken significant use and are holding up well. Since we use them on a chalk board they have been cleaned a bit too and they still look great after being covered in colored chalk. The magnets are strong and the pieces hold well, but not ridiculously so. Making rearranging or removing easy.The marbles that come with it are a bit lighter than the standard run of the mill kind so work best with the set. But regular ones work well too (since we seem to lose the given ones from time to time). It’s when you build a track that gets going fast and the force of the stop makes the basket piece fall off. But who can get mad at that? The tracks can go pretty fast.

This is a great toy and gets students to think critically, on how to get the marble down

Mid product. Should've expected it.The magnets are weaker than an anorexic. While I don't expect rare earth magnets, I do expect the tiles not to move when my kid puts the marble on the run.The foam used is too bouncy and you need to be careful how it's set up.It'll be fun for a little bit but this isn't a product that will last if your kids use it frequently.

3 year old loves these and so do I lol
