Conduct more than 60 electrifying experiments with circuits and magnetic contraptions to learn about electricity and magnetism and how these two fundamental properties are closely related. Children eight and up can safely and easily experiment with electric current and magnetic fields using the colorful snaptogether blocks and components in this handson kit.
Build series and parallel circuits to light up a light bulb. Experiment with push buttons and onoff switches. Assemble circuits that include a spinning motor two switches and up to three light bulbs.
Conduct tests to see which materials are magnetic. Learn about the force of magnetism and magnetic poles. Magnetize a metal. Use iron fillings to make invisible magnetic fields visible. Investigate magnetic force and direction with a magnetic pendulum device. Learn how a compass works and about Earth's magnetic fields. Conduct a series of experiments with a sturdy electromagnet.
Finally put everything you have learned to good use by constructing a loudspeaker an electromagnetic relay switch and a morse code telegraph key.
The components are specially designed to make learning fun and accessible. The electrical blocks fit together with simple plugand socket connectors. Because the blocks are brightly colored and have unique shapes it is easy to follow the assembly diagrams to construct functional devices.
The 64page fullcolor experiment manual guides you through experiments with easytofollow diagrams.
