This roller coaster theme construction set includes over 200 pieces to build and create your own introductory marble and gear run. Sidewinder 2.0 includes a hand crank to move the marbles through the spiral lifter to the top of the twisting and turning tracks. Once built, kids can watch their marbles drop, spin and roll through their own fun and exciting creation.

Now, this wonderful creation will definitely need to be built by an adult or older child.  My 7 year old would have been there for days trying to put it together.  It does say ages 6+ on it.  It took me at least a good hour to put it together.  It was fun because me and my son did it together.  He got me the pieces and we worked together on it.

Once it was finished he was so excited to put the marbles on it.  He, of course, says to me that we need to put a video of it on YouTube, for everyone to see.  So, that’s what we did. Here is it is: (I just love his commentary to it, so cute)

My son and daughter have been playing with this gadget for about a week now and it never gets old. It is fun to watch them play together and see how the whole thing works. They get excited to see which one wins first.  This is definitely a fun, time passer of a toy.  It will get lots of use and fun times around our house this summer.  Perfect for those rainy days.
