Hangable Magnetic Wands - Set of 6

This set of 6 Hangable Magnetic Wands is a reliable staple for any science and curiosity corner. Designed with durability in mind, these wands are perfect for 'treasure finding' activities both indoors and outdoors, encouraging children to investigate the environment and test what objects are magnetic. They are an exceptional hands-on resource for introducing the concept of magnetism, poles, and attraction, supporting 'Understanding the World' (Science). The simplicity of the wand allows children to focus entirely on the scientific concept, easily picking up metallic objects from sand, water, or sensory tubs. Featuring a handy hole at the end, these wands can be easily hung and stored, ensuring they are always accessible for spontaneous scientific enquiry, even in the outdoor classroom. The bright, varied colours add a playful element to the learning process. Supervision is advised during all use.
