Educational and Craft

Educational

Magnets challenge the minds of children and can assist in the development of their intelligence.

We carry a varied living range of magnetic kits and aids suitable for all ages.

Magnets are used in many ways for any number of school projects and experiments helping students explore space, mathematics, physics and chemistry. They are useful for model making from your starting out years to the more inquiring minds of middle school through to university studies.

Our educational range includes:

• "Educational Kits"

  Our best value kit comes in a clear plastic package that contains one ferrite horseshoe, two bars, two rings, one rod and one flexible rubber magnet. These are ideal for the youngster as an introduction into the magical powers of magnetism.
   

• "Colour Blocks"

  Green and red plastic encased 50 x 25 x 12 ferrite magnets are the ideal way to demonstrate the positive and negative physical powers of magnetism. Green represents North Pole and red represents South Pole. Like poles repel and opposites attract, children love them and they are useful for holding school notices on the fridge.
   

• "Iron Filings"

  Enables the exploration of the invisible physical fields of magnetism by placement on or around a magnet. These sealed clear plastic pouches are 70mm square and contain metal filings that provide a visual pattern of magnetic fields.
   

Craft
