Here is something I put together. I used a couple of toy coaster kits I got at 6 Flags in Atlanta a couple of years ago. I paid $20 a kit and used both of them to build this decoration.

I don't know if they are still available, but it might be something worth looking into or maybe somebody in your congregation might have some from a previous trip to the adventure park.

The kids really enjoy watching it. There is a little coaster car that goes around the track.

THAT IS INCREDIBLE!!! - Way to go Houseparent! Would love to know if anyone is able to find something similar anywhere! (I'm also going to start searching and will post if I find anything!) The kids would go crazy for something like this! VERY COOL! :cool:

Ask the kids in your congregation - a lot of them probably own K-nex already and they have tons of different amusement park rides.
