Today we discovered a beautiful way of explaining magnets to children.
We chose a lovely book from Pratham books – “The Magic Block” written by Lavina Mahbubani. It tells us the story of Rinky who finds a magic block in her bhaiya’s drawer. Kids were eager to know about the magic block and were amazed to see how it pulls only certain items towards it. They were curious to know how it works, and we had fun discussing the mechanism of magnets. Kids also enjoyed making paper boxes and coloring them during the craft session that followed.

The power of storytelling creates a great platform for fostering an interest in STEM learning, while creating a reading culture where learning is not confined to classrooms and textbooks.

Wishing you a week full of love,
