This toy encourages creativity by allowing you to design courses for balls to roll through using various parts.Start small with fewer pieces, and as you gain experience, create increasingly complex courses.The process of assembling, testing, and reassembling nurtures both creativity and problem-solving skills.Build a course using the parts like building blocks and watch the ball go.By mixing and matching various parts, you can create a course that's uniquely yours.Once assembled, try rolling the ball to see if it works smoothly! The way the ball rolls and the course it takes will change depending on how you combine the various shaped parts.By thoughtfully considering how to create a combination that allows the ball to roll to the bottom just as you imagined, you can nurture creativity.The various parts include sloped pieces that let the ball roll slowly, pieces with paddles that spin when the ball passes through, switches that change the course each time the ball goes by, and dish-shaped pieces where the ball swirls around before dropping.First, review the included example guide (English language not guaranteed) to familiarize yourself with the functionality and characteristics of each part, then challenge yourself to design your own unique course.Recommended Ages: 3 years and up.
