Rattle Rocket

This is GREAT for multiple ages. A bigger ball and bottle opening (like a juice bottle) works well too so the marble is not a choking hazard for little ones. This toy is too loud for the space we have at Easter with a marble but fine with the bouncy ball.

I should mention, the way to get the marble out! Turn the bottle upside down from the way shown in the picture and video then shake. The marble comes out more quickly and is easier to catch/control.

Racers

We tried this yesterday. I can't figure out how to get them to 'walk' up the string. Basically, who ever had the longer arms won because they pulled their strings apart faster. We made our little person out of a cereal box so he didn't rip. (A 3 and 5 year old aren't gentle.)

So when that was a bust, we tied the string to the curtain rod and the other end to the dining room chair so we could race across the room. TONS of fun!
