Gecko Run Complete Bundle Grades: 3+ Number of Students: 1-2 per kit Highlights: Complete Bundle This bundle includes the Gecko Run Starter set along with the Loop, Trampoline, Snake, and Twister expansion packs for a truly complete Gecko Run experience. Gecko Run takes classic marble runs to the next level with new creative challenges and less restrictive building requirements. This innovative marble run uses a specially designed system of flexible tracks that does not require any support structures. Traditional marble runs require lots of pieces to create vertical height, but with Gecko Run, your doors, windows, cupboards, bookcases – virtually any smooth surface – become part of your track, allowing you to build higher with fewer pieces. Attach the tracks to surfaces with the help of clever nano pads, which work like nanoscopic suction cups, to create a strong, but temporary bond. Because the pads are not glue-based, they can be quickly and easily repositioned many times without damaging adhesives or sticky residue. A quick wipe with a microfiber cloth will keep your pads ready for action! The versatile tracks are made from renewable, durable, and sustainably sourced raw materials. Thanks to their wide range of motion and flexibility, you can create hills and jumps, and even turn corners to generate a limitless number of tricks and stunts. No two tracks are ever the same! Each unique configuration promotes hands-on experimentation, supports problem-solving through trial-and-error, develops motor skills, and encourages creativity for kids and their grown-ups! Main Features: Intuitive: Tracks attach to smooth surfaces with the help of clever nano-adhesive pads that stick to smooth, vertical surfaces around your home Mess-free: The pads are not glue-based and can be quickly and easily repositioned without leaving behind damage or sticky residue. Open-Ended: Position in endless configurations on smooth surfaces Educational: Develop engineering and problem-solving skills, and see physics in action Tracks made from renewable raw materials Expansion Packs: With the Gecko Run: Loop Expansion Pack, you can bring even more speed, action, and experimental fun to your Gecko Run marble run. How much speed does the marble need to race perfectly through the loop? Experiment and find out! Get hopping with the Gecko Run: Trampoline Expansion Pack! Can you position the trampoline so that the marble flies really far? Can you even bounce it downward, or catapult it up to a higher track? See the physics of projectile motion, elastic collision, and trajectory in action. With the Gecko Run: Snake Expansion Pack, you can send your marbles through a maze of sharp curves and see how it affects their speed. But watch out: only if you place the snake correctly in your marble run will the marbles make it through! With the Gecko Run: Twister Expansion Pack, you can give your marbles a real spin. This not only brings extra fun to your Gecko Run marble run, but also makes the laws of physics visible.
