Lifts 1.8kg, and a child can feel it happen

A giant easy-grip horseshoe magnet with clearly identified poles. Lifts up to 1.8kg. Ages 6 and over. Assorted colours.

Small magnets teach a concept. This one teaches a sensation. At 1.8kg of lift a child can feel the pull start before the magnet touches anything, and that moment - force acting across a gap - is the part of magnetism that a diagram never quite delivers.

It is also one of only two magnets in this range without an under-8 ingestion warning, because it is far too large to swallow. Between it and the ferrite block, an early years room can teach magnetism properly without the small-magnet risk anywhere near it.

The grip is sized for small hands and the poles are clearly marked.

Colour is assorted and cannot be specified - the supplier sends what they have.

A size discrepancy worth knowing: the supplier's product title says 20cm and their description says 23cm. We have listed the title figure and asked them which is right.

FAQs

It carries no under-8 ingestion warning, because at this size it cannot be swallowed. The supplier rates it 6+. That makes it, with the ferrite block, one of the two magnets in this range suitable for a junior classroom.

The supplier's title says 20cm and their own description says 23cm. We have gone with the title and asked them which is correct rather than picking the bigger number.

Up to 1.8kg per the supplier. That is enough for a child to feel the pull begin before contact, which is the whole reason to buy a big magnet rather than another small one.

No - they come in assorted colours and the supplier cannot guarantee which. If it matters for a display, order two.

Lift chains of paperclips and count them, test what sticks across a room, and hold it near steel to feel the force before contact. One magnet, a whole lesson.
