Knock-Your-Socks-Off Appeal
We have sold various magnet kits over the last 20 years, but never one with so much variety and knock-your-socks-off appeal! Children of all ages will go bonkers over the chunk of magnetic putty that "eats" the scary-strong neodymium magnet. That experiment alone makes this kit a must–have.

32 Activities to Explore the Mysteries of Magnetism
But that is just one of 32 activities Magnetic Marvels uses to create an intensely child-friendly exploration of the mysteries of magnetism. Using an aluminum tube, your child will be startled to find that a magnet will float and not fall through the tube. Why? Wrap the tube with the enclosed strip of green magnetic viewing film, and your child will discover the answer to that question as he watches the magnet slowly descend down the tube. From learning about polarity to charting which breakfast cereal contains the most iron, Magnetic Marvels does it all.

Includes an assortment of magnets plus compass, materials, and full-color instructions for 32 fun activities. You will need to provide an occasional household item for some of the experiments. While children as young as three have had a blast with this kit in our home, because magnets can ruin cell phones and computers, Magnetic Marvels is recommended for ages eight and older.
