Here's a great project I have made in several different forms over the years. It's always a hit, even with older kids.... :) Free files by following the link at the end of the page.

Hi everyone, my little ones (all of them, even the 13 yo) loved these
"tumblers" so much over Easter I thought they might like some new
ones...for Christmas. I first saw the idea for these very old style toys
on Family Fun.com. A website that always inspires me. It takes nearly
no time at all and they create so much fun! I have created an SVG file, a
SUT2 file and a .cut file for everyone which I will attempt to share at
the bottom of the page.

After cutting out the file on your machine score these folds...a heavier cardstock tends to hold up better.
This
adhesive is called "scoretape" but I also like Scotch quick dry
adhesive. If this is your first time to my blog. let me tell you how
much I love scoretape...well maybe not or you won't come back...LOL "Red
tape" also works well but be sure your double sided tape doesn't extend
beyond the and keep the marbles from rolling freely.
OK
so you can use whatever you want for your ramp, even an ironing board
or an even longer cushion but it does need a bit of friction so it wont
just slide down anticlimactically without flipping...really sad when
that happens... also it can be a fun challenge to get it balanced on
edge (without bending the paper).
Please
note that I am just a mom and comments (nice ones) keep me sane. I ask
you to please not share this file, instead refer them to my site. Also
please do not create this for profit, including contests, without my
permission. Instead, contact me ahead of time if you want to use my
file. Thanks and enjoy!
