Toilet Paper Roll Marble Run
Good for ages 4 and up.
Toilet paper roll marble run. Totally worth it in my estimation. Simple to set up easy to do and full of learning possibilities. This step is purely decorative but it added some pizazz to the design and kept my daughter busy for a good part of a morning. Well since starting this blog i think this is the second craft i have done that actually has a toilet roll in it.
We ll use the side of the box as a wall and attach the tubes to it. Each tube will need to be mounted diagonally so the marbles or balls can drop from tube to tube. Do you save cardboard tubes from paper towels toilet paper and whatever else comes on a roll. Feel free to paint or decorate your toilet paper roll marble run.
Tinkerlab has a nifty marble run idea. Decorate your marble run rolls optional for this diy marble run we started by wrapping the paper towel and toilet paper rolls with colored masking tape. I have seen a few things floating around on pinterest with kids using the long paper towel rolls as tubes which are either attached to a wall or fridge to make a kind of marble run. The first is a pair of binoculars by the way.
What a great rainy day or anytime kind of activity. All you need are some toilet paper or paper towel rolls and pretty colored tape and you re set.
