500 _aFun and Easy Activities About the Physical Science that Will "Magnetize" Kids Make a battery from a lemon. Create (and destroy) a magnet. Produce light from friction. Build a motor. Trace the energy field of the Earth. These electrifying projects for ages 8 and up are anything but static! Simple principles of electricity and magnetism come alive with these hands-on activities. Children can easily do these simple yet fascinating activities in static electricity, magnetic induction and polarity, conductors and insulators and more... with just a little hlep from parents or teachers using readily-available household materials. While rooted in solid scientific theory, these entertaining activities are geared towards children's interests, and can each be complete in less than one hour.
