Crafty Wednesday: Marble Race Track

[The Little Seed]

Whether you have a pool or not, everyone seems to have one of these funky pool noodles laying around the garage or backyard somewhere! Grab it and start crafting! Here's a fun way to transform that old noodle into a marble race track, no pool required! Hours of fun guaranteed!

Here's what you will need...

Pool noodle

Marbles

Serrated knife

Shoe box

Toothpicks

Cut the pool noodle in half, with a serrated knife, length wise. Lay each half next to each other and use a toothpick to attach them together. Place the top of the noodles on a set of stairs or large chair so it slants down like a ramp! Place a shoe box at the end of the ramp and you're off to the races! Drop the marbles at the top and watch as they race down the track! Have the winner keep both marbles and whoever ends up with all the marbles is the winner!
