This is a magnetic marble maze toy for children 5 and up. The concept is a 3D maze, where children guide a metallic marble by a magnetic "wand." The maze course takes advantage of the vertical orientation of the puzzle, allowing the marble to travel through ramps and loops with the force of gravity. The magnetic wand also allows children to violate the pull of gravity and navigate the marble around the course. The maze could be made from wood or, to cut costs, out of plastic. The marble represents a choking hazard for very young children.
