JMK100 pcs Glass Marbles with Shooter

I don't use these to play with. I am a teacher, and I use them as a reward system. I have a jar on my desk. When my whole class is doing the right thing, I will add a marble to the jar (I never take them away for punishment, once they earn it, they earn it). When they earn 100 marbles, I throw a pizza party for them for their good behavior. The marbles are shiny and colorful, so the kids often stop to look at the jar.

I got these for physical therapy. Yes I know that sounds funny. But I was having serious issues with pain in my legs and feet and it turned out I wasn’t pushing off my big toe when walking. It put my gait off big time. I had to do marble pickups using the undercarriage of my big toe on each foot at PT and they suggested I invest in some marbles. Where did I go? Amazon! Of course these were one of the first that came up but they had good reviews and the price was right. As I sit and do the marble pick ups now, I think back to my childhood when I would play with these. Funny how they serve a totally different purpose in my life now but bring me just as much joy since I no longer have the stability issues I once had. Pain is less and I still have really cool marbles. I maybe just won’t tell anyone I picked them all up with my feet lol.

I bought these to fill a mason jar for a display. Nothing wrong with them, I'm sure they work fine as marbles, but these have a definite green cast to the glass. I Specifically remember playing with marbles in my youth and staring into the bright clear glass and looking at the colorful cats eye patterns inside. Price is good, but I guess quality can't match how the old-timers used to make them.

Perfect for what we needed. We use them to raise the fluid level up to the top of its container when air in the container spoils its content (think varnish or catalyst). Just make sure the diameter fits the container opening, in our case 5/8" for a qt. bottle of catalyst. A lot cheaper than bloxygen.
