Children learn how and why magnets behave by testing the basic physical principles governing magnetism. They learn how to create magnets and how magnetism is lost. Children use compasses to gain a better understanding of how humans benefit from the Earth’s magnetic force. Hands-on experimenting-from swinging compasses to motorized devices- allows children to explore the role of magnetism in our everyday lives.
