NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC Glowing Marble Run – Construction Set with 15 Glow in The Dark Glass Marbles & Storage Bag, STEM Gifts for Boys and Girls, Building Project Toy (Amazon Exclusive)

Our 5‑ and 2‑year‑olds absolutely love the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC Glowing Marble Run—they’ve played with it every day since we bought it. The glow marbles are a big hit, especially in dim light, and the pieces click together solidly so the tracks don’t collapse mid‑run. It’s great for family time: we build together, experiment with different layouts, and the kids learn cause‑and‑effect and problem‑solving while having fun. Cleanup is easy, and the set has enough pieces to keep designs fresh. Super engaging, sturdy, and a wonderful hands‑on STEM toy for mixed ages.

This was a great toy they had so much much playing with it

I love this gift. The marvels look really cool and the tracks are really fun to build.

This a decent set with parts that easily fit together to build any tower that you can think of. I enjoy the fact that the colors are transparent and the marbles glow in the dark. Depending on where you place this marble run, the marbles move through the set's tubes quite nicely. I suggest that you work with it on a table or firm surface so you won’t have to use your hands to hold it down. I attempted to use this set on the carpet, but it was not stable enough and almost fell over several times.

Fun with marbles after visiting a marble store and seeing how marbles are made. Neat to show the newest generation an old timer toy in a way that keeps their interest. Stem building to assemble.

My daughter and I are having a BLAST at all the ways we can play with this toy. I love how it fosters creativity and promotes STEM skills! It's durable, well built, and will last for many more play dates. Highly recommend!

pretty nifty toy. Quite a variety of ways you can set up your marble run, and it can go into storage nice and compact. I will caution about the marble size, though: stick to marbles that are closer in size to the ones provided in the kit. Larger ones will have a tendency to get stuck. Also, make sure that run is as level as possible, as that can also affect how the marbles go through the run. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase.

The 5 year old twins love it and it is great for their creativity - cool gift

I got it for my 2 and 4yo kids, and even though It says it’s for 8yo+, it is really a lot of fun for young kids. There is no wrong way to construct it, so possibilities are literally unlimited. It is even more fun when you turn off the lights and the marbles glow and slide in an intricate way.

Bought for my son who is 7. We love the glowing marbles, they even have a light that makes them glow super fast, and they're beautiful colours. I would say you need 2 or more people to build though, because it falls easy without enough support, once it's set it's sturdy though. Plastic is durable, and it all fits right back in the black bag provided!

So much fun! Some review mention plastic is not good quality, but my two children launch pieces all over the place and they’ve survived. If the towers are not supported they will fall easily, which can be frustrating if you are trying to amend a structure. We’ve built many runs! It was played with day after day at Christmas! We have no doubts it is the best value for money marble run! The glowing marbles are a bonus! The storage bag (draw string net) has stayed in tact but think it could rip quite easily if not cared for so we keep the bag in the original box for storage or you could buy a storage box instead of using bag. One part has broken as it was one of two fragile parts and stood on! The little yellow pointy diverted clips on two parts are painful if they come off and get stood on! We still love it!

It is excellent product regardless of age. I had some issues with it at the beggining but seller sent a new one as quick as possible.

Good quality made with thick and smooth plastics. No rough or sharp edges and everything works wonderful. The luminous marbles are amazing too! My two kids 7 and 9 yo totally enjoying themselves playing with it. May consider getting more to extend their structure and creativity to build more complex structures
