This toy summarizes everything I love about German toys. It's simple, beautiful, incredibly well built, classic, and a little bit funky. Ball runs are some of the longest lasting, age-spanning toys available. Babies, toddlers, and even adults are fascinated by the ball merrily tripping down the track. The balls clap hands with the elf, ring bells, and click down the rumble strip.
This kugelbahn is not inexpensive but is one of the best we've found. The size is big enough to be safe for babies. Suitable for ages one year and older. Made in Germany.
