Domino Set up

My kids watched a video of my brothers a few years back when they did a HUGE domino track. It really was pretty impressive and very cool. So of course the kids wanted to do it too. I knew it wouldn't be anything spectacular, but just a fun family night activity. So we tried it!

It took a little longer than planned (well longer than I wanted to stick to it), but we had fun, and the 20 seconds of watching hopefully wasn't too disappointing!

This was Maliyah trying to set up some domino pieces through her tunnel. She knocked them down about 3 times and finally asked mom to just do it.



Here is the whole set up. It starts at the top of the table and the dominoes split into 2 and then knocks the ball and the car down.





the car falls down on the Purple button and flips the domino to hit the DVD case, which then knocks over and sets the rest of the dominoes off.



The ball rolls down a ramp that eventually leads it into this bowl.



This is what Maliyah was trying to go for with the dominoes under her DVD case bridge.
