Introduce children to the exciting world of magnetism with the Shaw Giant Horseshoe Magnet — a durable, child-friendly tool designed to make magnetic exploration engaging and hands-on. With clearly marked North and South poles, children can observe magnetic forces in action as they attract, repel, lift, and move magnetic objects.

This oversized horseshoe magnet is perfect for STEM discovery, loose-parts play, sensory tables, and science centres. Its large size and strong pull make magnetic learning highly interactive and visually stimulating, helping children develop early scientific thinking and curiosity about the natural world.

Pair with Magnetic Counters, Magnetic Marbles, or Shaw Magnetic Wands for extended exploration.
