Spiral-Marble-Track-Pin
Marble runs are a classic engineering toy before STEM was even a thing! I remember having a wooden marble run when I was little and it was so much fun to watch the marbles race the the end. Later, we had a plastic spiral one. That was the best! Your kids will be mesmerized watching their marbles run round and round and round this DIY Spiral Marble Run from Frugal Fun 4 Boys.

Find out exactly how to construct your very own spiral marble run with supplies you already have in your home. There is also a video to show the entire thing in action! Get all the details for this classic engineering project HERE.
