Fun and Learning with Magnets

On Thursday, December 6 we will:

  • Play with magnets! As we are playing, we'll talk about what is happening: "What is happening? What do you notice? Why do you think that happens? What happens if we do this?" and lots more open ended questions that might lead to some discoveries of scientific principles!
  • Then we will take turns running a large magnet through some sand that has small magnets hidden in it. Then we'll talk about gratefulness. The sand represents our day or life, and the large magnet represents a thankful heart. We'll continue a conversation on how gratitude works like a magnet and draws more good to us. 
    • It is much easier to see all our blessings or things to be grateful for when we remain positive and thankful!
      • Then we find even MORE to be thankful for!!!!
