Description
Kids love thrilling roller coasters…and now they can design their own! Through trial and error, students learn how the track position affects the disk—as it rolls and falls from track to track and into the goal box! Plus, the magnetic tracks stick to any flat magnetic surface, so they’re perfect for use with our Stand-Up Magnetic Design Center (sold separately). You get 5 double-sided challenge cards, 3 disks, a goal box and 10 magnetic tracks. Longest track measures 15".
Item # LL570
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD - Small parts. Not for children under 3 years.
Additional Information
Develops skills in understanding speed and momentum, force and motion, angles and trajectories, and size.

So much learning!

My students loved the coaster. When they first started, and it didn't work, they would make adjustments until it worked! I loved seeing them think out of the box.

Great for little engineers

I like the ability of the kids using their critical thinking skills in order to find the path for the coaster to work.

My kid loves it

He saw it displayed at the store and stayed at the display for half an hour at least. So we had to buy it. It's very well made, sturdy plastic and good strong magnets.

Preschoolers loved it!

The kids in my blended preschool class love this toy! We use it on the side of a bookshelf that has magnetic sides. Unfortunately, we haven't had it long, and we are already missing two of the three gears, so now it is a center for one student or two students who can take turns.
