7. Magnetic Boxes
This is a very simple science activity, number 7 on our list of science activities for toddlers and preschoolers, that you can do any time. Find a box, possibly a plastic one, and put all sorts of metal objects inside such as paper clips, pipe cleaners, etc. Remember to include your child in the activity from the beginning by letting him/her find the objects and put them in the box. Then find a magnet and let your kid lift the metal objects with it without touching them.
