“Great product for teenagers” – Playworker observing 12 and 13 year old children
What our experts think
These Electricity and Magnetism experiments are great for developing children’s understanding of a range of scientific concepts. The children were encouraged to think scientifically – predicting, testing hypotheses, observing and drawing conclusions. Hands on learning reinforces school-based learning, and also benefits problem solving skills. It was lovely to see how the children’s curiosity and trial and error learning progressed. The children enjoyed showing their parents their new skills.
