I purchased this for my nephews, and it has been a massive hit! From the moment they opened the box, they were completely captivated by the endless possibilities for building and creating.
The magnets are strong and sturdy, making it easy for little hands to assemble and disassemble the pieces without frustration. I love how this set encourages creativity and problem-solving while also teaching basic STEM concepts in such a fun and engaging way. My nephews have built everything from simple shapes to complex structures, and their excitement never fades!
As a bonus, the included guidebook provides great inspiration for new designs, but the kids love to freestyle their own creations too. It’s a perfect blend of fun and education, and I feel great knowing it’s helping them develop important skills like spatial awareness and teamwork.
The quality is fantastic—durable, safe, and well-made. It’s also compact enough to store easily, and the storage bag is a thoughtful addition for keeping everything organized.
I would highly recommend this to any parent, teacher, or caregiver looking for a creative, hands-on activity for kids. Whether for playtime, homeschooling, or just some screen-free entertainment, this set is worth every penny!

Product Description
The biggest hit of Christmas presents for my grandson!
Of all the gifts my 7 year old grandson received for Christmas, this was the biggest hit! There is just so much fun and opportunity for creativity with this marble run building set! The design options are literally infinite and the process is both fun and it does take some time to get the design to function like you want.As you can see from the attached picture, we put up two metal white boards on the wall behind a door to one of our guest rooms. The paper template you see at the top was just to help him model his first design to get a feel for things. So it's cool that he can begin to work on a design and even if he isn't able to complete it, it's perfectly in place for when he comes back the next time. And it's out of sight and out of mind until he returns! I ended up purchasing two of these, one for his use at his home and one for use and my home. I guess we'll see, but I expect this will be a "game" he'll not lose interest in for several years! I highly recommend!

All parents currently looking - I am not saying don't buy this product. But this is a frustrated dad talking to National Geographic. I appreciate the concept of the National Geographic Magnet Marble Run but am disappointed with its execution. As a frustrated dad, my main issue is with the weak magnets, which frequently disrupt the flow of play, requiring constant maintenance instead of enjoying the creation. To stabilize the structure, I had to purchase additional, stronger neodymium magnets. Another drawback is the insufficient number of basic connectors provided, limiting the assembly options. The catapult, while a great idea, lacks an auto-load feature, making it tedious to operate. Also, the weak magnets cause the structure to shift easily with slight pressure, necessitating frequent recalibration or omitting the catapult altogether. The switch design is poorly implemented and the spinners, intended as decorative elements, are ineffective due to the same magnet issue, becoming misaligned after minimal use. This is particularly disappointing because, among the many toys my kids have, this is one I also enjoy, and it could have been a memorable experience for us. However, the fragility of the track and constant need for adjustments lead to frustration and eventually, we move on to something else.
