Full details

FAQs

What age is the GraviTrax JUNIOR Starter Set S Dino recommended for?

This set is recommended for children aged 3 years and older.

Are the GraviTrax JUNIOR pieces compatible with the regular GraviTrax sets?

No, GraviTrax JUNIOR components are specifically designed for younger children and are not compatible with the standard GraviTrax system. They use a different scale and connection method.

What are the components made of?

All components are made from wood-based bioplastic.

How many marbles are included?

The starter set typically includes a specified number of marbles for play. Please refer to the product packaging for the exact count.

Can I expand the set?

Yes, the GraviTrax JUNIOR system is expandable. You can purchase other GraviTrax JUNIOR themed sets and expansion packs to add more elements and complexity to your marble runs.

How do I clean the pieces?

Clean the pieces with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or immersing them in water.

What skills does this toy help develop?

The GraviTrax JUNIOR Starter Set helps develop fine motor skills, spatial reasoning, problem-solving abilities, and encourages creativity and imaginative play.

Troubleshooting

Marble does not roll or gets stuck.

Ensure all track pieces are securely connected and level. Check for any obstructions in the track or on the marble. Verify that the incline is sufficient for the marble to roll.

Set feels unstable.

Make sure the base plates are firmly connected and placed on a stable, flat surface. Ensure all vertical supports and track pieces are properly interlocked.

Child is frustrated with building.

Provide gentle guidance and encouragement. Start with simpler track designs and gradually introduce more complex elements as the child gains confidence. Focus on the fun of experimentation rather than perfect construction.

Missing component.

Double-check the packaging. If a component is genuinely missing, contact Ravensburger customer support for assistance.
