Magnets are super cool and super educational, so they make perfect tools for kids activities. Today I am sharing a collection of magnet wand activities for exploring magnets for kids. I've added affiliate links to this post.

20+Magnet Wand Activities for Kids - What a cool way to explore magnets with kids!

We love playing with magnets at our house- in fact my parents always let me play with magnets as a kid and I think that is where my own fascination began.

There's just something about that amazing invisible pull between two objects that never gets old.

However there are safety concerns when playing with magnets- it's very dangerous for kids to swallow magnets. To explore the properties of magnets in a safe way, we use Magnet Wands.

You can get them in several different packages, to suit your needs:

The Family Magnet Wand Pack

The Classroom Pack of Magnet Wands

The Single Student Magnetic Fun Set

The Mighty Magnets Set (with other shapes of magnets)

The Fun With Magnets Set

A while back one of my lovely fans asked what we use these magnet wands for. I found a ton of ideas for her and I thought it would be handy to share them in a roundup, SO. Here we are! 🙂
