Learning Resources Horseshoe Magnets, set of 6 for STEM experiments, ages 4-7

The Horseshoe Magnets from Learning Resources are perfect for small groups and individual learning. The set includes 6 pieces, each measuring 12.5 cm, and helps little ones explore the basic properties of magnetism in a practical and engaging way. Each object has a negative and a positive pole, just like real magnets, making it a concrete tool for observing polarity phenomena.

The magnets are ideal for learning the properties of polarity, attraction, or repulsion and can be used both in the classroom and at home. Children can test how poles attract and repel each other, lift metal objects, and discover for themselves the rules that govern the magnetic field. These hands-on activities transform an abstract concept into a direct, easy-to-understand experience.

STEM sets are based on the STEM curriculum, which brings together science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. This paradigm is based on experiments with everyday items that help little ones easily understand different phenomena and concepts. With the 6 horseshoes included, several children can work together or each can explore the properties of magnets individually.

Warning! This toy contains magnets or magnetic components. Magnets that stick to each other or attach to a metal object inside the human body can cause serious or fatal accidents. Seek immediate medical assistance if magnets are swallowed or inhaled. Keep the toy away from fire, high temperatures, and humidity, and keep the instructions and labels for future reference.
