Magnetic SLIME 🧲! Get all the materials and instructions for this cool science activity in my NEW March Break Science Box🧪📦! Comment “SCIENCE BOX” to get the link 🔗. Already HALF sold out! Wow yesterday’s launch couldn’t have gone any better! This is still so surreal… what was once an idea that I would talk about over and over again, to now fully executed and ready to enter your homes. The most proud I have ever been in my business🙏🏼. 📣YOU ASKED: So many international friends asking for this, so I am currently working on a shipping option for international orders! Stay tuned! Now let’s chat the science behind this magnetic slime 🧲 👉🏼The neodymium magnet creates a constant invisible magnetic field, influencing nearby magnets. The iron filings in your slime are ferromagnetic; not magnets, but they get magnetized temporarily by the neodymium magnet's field. As you bring the magnet close, the slime sluggishly responds due to its thickness. Near the magnet, the field intensifies, causing the slime to abruptly leap and cling to the magnet. Release the magnet, and the slime gradually envelops it as the iron filings wrap around. #stemeducation #stemeducationforkids #scienceexperiments #slime
