Marble Launch
Marble Launch:
- This toy can be used by both children and adults as it pits a players fine motors against a series of rings that the player attemapts to launch a marble through.
- For younger users, the physical concepts of a spring and kinematics will be on display. Users must master the use of the springboard to provide the exact amount of energy needed to launch the marble through the rings successfully.
- Marble Launch is constructed of wood, used for the base and springboard, and metal, used for the rings. These materials give the toy a sturdy feel and give the user a clear ringing sound when the marble hits a metal ring. Users of this toy should be 3 years or older due to choking concerns associated with the marble.
