What To Do
Step one: Build a marble track with your pipe cleaners and blocks for your marbles. You will need two pipe cleaners on each side of the marble track. You’re creating a track for them. It helps if you tape your pipe cleaners down to the ground so the marbles don’t dislodge them, but you will need to make sure the
tape won’t halt the marbles’ progress. A little bit of tape will go a long way with this.
Helpful Tips
Use larger marbles, rather than smaller marbles.
You may find your tracks work better if you cut your pipe cleaners in half.
