A wooden framed 10cm plastic lens with 2x magnification and an inset lens with 3x magnification ideal for close observation. Use on the nature table, with shells for example, or to closely inspect fossils. Of course you will think up many more uses, and the children will think up a thousand more!

A set of magnetic and non magnetic materials for exploring magnetism. The plastic case includes: 20 magnetic and non-magnetic objects; some familiar, some not, neatly sealed in clear plastic pots with 2 magnetic wands to test for magnetism.

Rectangular plastic cased iron filings to show the effect of magnetic force when in the proximity of a magnet.

Place a magnet (not supplied) on the pad and the iron filings orientate themselves to show the direction of magnetic force.

A set of magnets for exploring magnetism. The plastic case includes: bar magnets, button magnets, ferrite blocks and rings, 2 horseshoe magnets, coloured squares of magnetic rubber, compasses, chrome rods and a Lodestone piece.

A set of colourful magnets for exploring magnetism. The plastic case includes: 2 bar magnets, 4 magnetic wands, 20 magnetic marbles, a set of floating ring magnets, a horseshoe magnet, a super magnet, a compass magnet and a booklet with 16 activities.

A model of the Earth containing a strong magnet which creates an invisible exterior magnetic field similar to that of the Earth, and a hand held Magnetic Field Finder which is a three dimensional magnetic compass.

Hardwood frame with easy grip handles enclosing a concave and convex mirror. These produce fascinating reflections - upside down, larger and smaller reflections depending on which side you look in. Bring the concave mirror up really close and it acts as a wonderful magnifying mirror.
