Publisher's Description of Connetix Ball Run Launcher Pack (47 pieces)

Designed for fast-moving, action-packed fun, the CONNETIX Ball Run Launcher Pack reimagines what’s possible in ball run play, introducing an innovative launcher piece that takes every build to the next level. 

Children will delight in hitting the launcher button and watching the wooden balls blaze through their builds. Every launch becomes an exciting experiment in cause and effect as builders vary force, test new angles, adjust heights, and swap tube pieces to see how each change transforms the outcome. 

Featuring a mix of clear tube pieces, including slides, turns and straight pieces, builders can create endless ball run designs full of twists, turns and momentum. Clear connector rings create a seamless look so runs appear more continuous. Plus, the versatile stopper can be plugged into any connector point to redirect runs and explore different pathways through each design. 

The pack also includes two wooden balls, 11 connector tiles in our bright color range, as well as five squares for further stability. 

The Ball Run Launcher Pack is a fun-filled way to bring hands-on STEAM learning to life, perfect for exploring force, motion and problem-solving while pushing designs further with every build.
