Experiments with magnets
... Everyone knows what a magnet is - but why does it stick to the fridge, for example? The Winlab "Magnetic Experiments" set gives children a hands-on introduction to exploring the phenomenon of magnetism: floating paperclips, giant fishing games, magnetic boat rides and electromagnets! The box contains child-friendly materials for a group of 10. True to the saying "the proof of the pudding is in the eating", children retain practical knowledge far better than theoretical knowledge. It sparks an interest in and enthusiasm for science, stimulates the senses and concentration, develops language skills - through learning new terms - and promotes teamwork. The enclosed booklet explains the scientific background, offers ideas on how to structure a session, and provides fun experiment instructions. The set includes, amongst other things: super magnets, levitating magnets, U-shaped magnets, rod magnets, ring magnets, block magnets, magnetite, test tubes, iron filings, steel balls, flat batteries, nuts, screws, nails, cables, paper clips, thread, cord, cork discs, wooden sticks, a foil pen, 1 rotating and tilting globe, child-friendly instructions and much more. Everything is neatly and clearly packed in stackable, resealable boxes made from synthetic materials.
