Skyrail

Building Sets

Check out this huge, top-quality marble run from Italy is over 5 feet wide and 3 feet tall, with adjustable suspension cables to easily raise or lower the tracks. Kids have to reason and experiment to construct a system that safely delivers the marbles to the bottom; after that, the challenge lies in building speed to the eye-boggling max! 310 pieces, including 12 marbles and 36 feet of glow-in-the-dark track.

Qwirkle

Games

MindWare’s most awarded game of all time.

Qwirkle is as simple as matching colors and shapes, but this game also requires tactical maneuvers and well-planned strategy.

The player with the most points wins! 108 wooden blocks. 2 to 4 players.
