Experience the mysterious forces of magnetism with this experimentation set from German makers Kraul. Discover the basics of magnetism by seeing which objects remain hanging from the powerful magnet the longest. Observe the different reactions of magnet polarity — which sides show attraction and which show repulsion? Visualize magnetic fields with the iron fillings, building of a compass needle, and moving the paper truck.
Kraul is a German-based family business that has been specializing in quality children’s toys since the 1920’s. Encouraging an early love and appreciation of nature, Kraul kits revolve around the basic elements of earth, fire, wind, and water. Going beyond simply building and experimentation, Kraul opens a world of wonder and imaginative play. Over the years, Kraul has been run by family members that also hold job titles of Waldorf educator, meteorologist, and physicist, which makes it no wonder that their experiment kits and toys stand above the rest. All production and packaging takes place in Germany and the company employs people who are differently abled whenever possible.
