3.0 out of 5 stars does not have lode stone as advertised!, February 8, 2011

This is a nice magnet kit for children. I bought it for my 9 year old. He was disappointed because the description claims it contains lode stone (natural magnetic stones) but it does not. The other magnets are nice though.

Yes, I have a 7 year old son and I personally love magnets. I think this product should come with a little case to carry the pieces. We lost a lot of them within the first week of just letting him go with it- and the rest were lost over the course of about 6 months.. we still see a piece running around sometimes.. but it would have been nice to have something to put all the stuff in so that it was easy for a kid. It was fun while it lasted. I think the magnets could be stronger. They are not strong enough to hurt you if they come clashing together though, so that is good. (Could be stronger)
Some ideas-- He REALLY loved the gyroscope I got him, with the floating magnets and the prism. Also a good idea is a magnifying glass, and a bug cage-- If you and your kids love nature and science.

I got this kit for my 4.5-year-old daughter and she loves it. She has a lot of fun doing all the experiments with the magnets. Only problem was that the kit was advertised as including a lodestone, which it does not. Otherwise, though, it is really good.
