Homopolar Electric Motor Toy

Fun and easy to build toy for kids. Science is fun. Go nuts. Neodymium Magnets are required along with a regular AA battery, and some copper wire. Tap a little dent into battery so wire stays in place. Caution wire gets hot, don’t leave unattended. Neodymium magnets are so strong they can be dangerous. Don’t let them clack together or they might break into bits. Eye protection would be good. Don’t swallow magnets~ (watch the little ones)… More at JEMTOY.

Snowboarding

Best school ever. This winter my 4th grade class went to the snow bowl on 3 different days to learn how to snowboard or ski. This was our first lesson. Visit TimeBrats.com for more.
