Hands-on magnet investigations for science projects

A practical introduction to magnetism built around 20 experiments and extensions for developing science fair projects. The activities address questions such as how compasses function, what magnetic fields are, and how electricity can be used to make a magnet. Simple investigations with items including bar magnets, paper, string, pencils, and compasses give the book a clear experiment-first structure. Its emphasis on household materials, limited preparation, and easy cleanup makes the projects suited to repeatable observation and follow-up testing.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Kids ages 8–12 interested in hands-on science activities
