Synopsis

Magnets irresistibly draw kids to science--turning the learning process into a magical experience. This entertaining collection of experiments helps parents and teachers make the most of that natural, youthful curiosity. These activities answer all the most basic questions in a hands-on way, always with an eye to safety: What do the "N" and the "S" on a magnet mean? What can a magnet pick up--and can I make something magnetic? Where is the largest magnet in the world? There's even a way to make a magnet float in the air and a great "art project" using a magnet to decorate a silly drawing!

Reviews

What can a magnet pick up? Can I make something magnetic? How do compasses work? As part of the First Science Experiments series, this small, square book introduces basic concepts about magnets with hands-on activities that parents and teachers can do with children and then talk about. Each experiment is divided into three sections: materials needed, procedures, and results. Cheery colorful cartoons, making the book an appealing package for children and their adult helpers, accompany the text. Others in the series include Mighty Machines! and Wonderful Weather!
