Melodies in motion
Get ready for a musical challenge!
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to build a marble run that makes sweet music with a xylophone! Are you brave enough to take on this melody-making adventure? Necessary items: Xylophone (not included)A quick tip before you dive into this challenge:
You might want to take a peek at the Starterset operation manual first if you’d like to brush up on the different starter set components!
Here are the steps:
- Gather straws, marbles, connectors, carriers, mounts and possibly more components + a xylophone.
- Design and build your marble run with straws.
- Place the xylophone in a strategic spot in the track, so the marbles can fall onto it. How would you solve this?
- Test the track and listen to the musical sounds that arise when the marbles hit the xylophone.
- Improve the track if necessary to refine the sounds.
- Play with the marbles and enjoy creating music as they roll through the track.
Remember that building a marble run is a process of trial and improvement. Be patient and enjoy the creative adventure.
