MindWare KEVA Contraptions: Wooden Blocks Marble Run Kit with 200 Planks and 2 Balls

Unlock creative engineering with MindWare KEVA Contraptions

From the moment you open the box, the smooth wood and clean lines invite tactile exploration. Each piece is uniform, designed to fit snugly so structures stay steady as a marble travels along a track. This is not a race; it’s a measured, satisfying building experience that rewards patience and planning.

What you build matters

With 200 identical planks, builders have endless possibilities. Use them as scaffolding, ramps, bridges, or tracks—and because there are no glue or connectors, you can rearrange and rebuild in minutes.

• Predictable play: snug, warp-resistant pieces reduce unexpected shifts during marble runs.
• Interchangeable compatibility: planks align with other Kapla/KEVA sets for expanded designs.
• Hands-on learning: kids explore basic physics, cause and effect, and spatial thinking as they design paths.
• Out-of-box ready: just unpack and start; no extra tools required.

What’s in the box

The package includes 200 identical wooden planks, 2 balls, and an idea book with project photos and quick-start instructions to spark the first builds.

• 200 planks provide a sturdy, modular canvas for big ideas.
• Two marbles offer immediate tracking challenges for early experiments.
• An idea book offers project photos to inspire new builds and strategies.
