Marbles... have you lost your marbles?

Ben found a marble the other day and was so excited he showed it to everyone. Linda said they used to sell marbles and still had some at her house. Ben got excited and I told him he could ask her how many marbles he could get with the money he had saved. He showed his money to her and she said she would just give him some. The next day she brought him 40 marbles and a big shooter marble to boot. His eyes lit up but he was a little worried too. He said he felt like he was stealing them from her. After we discussed it he understood that she was giving them to him because she is his friend. So, because of this we wanted to find out how marbles are made so I went to the Internet. We found a video and it was really neat. I want to collect hand made marbles because they look so neat and now I know how they are made. I just thought I'd share.
