Step into a world where science feels like magic with The Magic of Magnets, a 2-hour STEM interactive program, girls get hands-on as they explore the invisible forces all around them, from magnetic fields to the push and pull powers of attraction and repulsion.
Girls become scientists as they:
🧲 Test real magnets to discover what sticks, what doesn't, and why.
🧲Investigate magnetic poles and feel the surprising "push" of repulsion.
🧲Reveal invisible magnetic fields and create magnetic field art.
🧲Engineer your own magnetic mazes and find a way out with a DIY magnetic wand.
🧲Experiment and test how liquids change magnetic strength.
🧲Build a tiny spinning motor!
Throughout the experience, girls practice curiosity, teamwork, problem solving, and creative thinking, all while discovering how magnets appear in everyday life: phones, refrigerators, toys, tools, headphones, and even Earth itself! By the end, each girl leaves with new STEM confidence, a deeper understanding of physical science, and a big spark of excitement for exploring how the world works.
