My 7 year old boy loved this kit. He read through the book and did all of the experiments himself. My 9 year old girl also likes it. After using the kit, they both understand the basics of magnetism; how to make a nail into a magnet, why a compass points to the north, how the earth acts as a magnet etc. etc. Highly recommended! __verified purchaser

These kits are the only experiment kits I buy now. Included is everything needed to cover all aspects of a subject. The front flap is a book packed full of 22 different activities. All short and to the point. Colorful pictures. Occasionally you may need a household item such as a battery, nail, or other household objects easily found in any home for this kit. My children pull out this magnet kit weekly. They love redoing all the experiments! __ Amazon Reviewer
