STEM Project Floating Forces Kit – Magnetic Levitation Science Activity

Floating Forces Magnet Kit – STEM Project for Kids

This floating forces magnet kit lets kids explore magnetic repulsion in a hands-on way. The kit includes a wood base, one upright post, and five strong magnets that float and push against each other. It’s a simple build with big impact—perfect for classrooms, science fairs, or weekend experiments.

Explore Magnetism Through Play

Kids can stack the magnets and watch them resist each other. Because the magnets are strong and the post is centered, the floating effect is easy to see and fun to test. You can flip the magnets, adjust spacing, and explore how polarity affects movement.
It also demonstrates the effects of gravity: the weight of the upper magnets compresses the magnetic field below, making the gaps between the lower magnets smaller.

Simple Assembly, No Tools Needed

Each kit includes a predrilled wood base and one upright post. You’ll also receive five magnets sized to fit the post. Assembly takes just a few minutes and requires no glue or screws. Instructions are included, so kids and adults can build together.

STEM-Friendly and Classroom-Ready

This floating forces magnet kit supports STEM learning by encouraging curiosity, observation, and experimentation. Teachers often use it to introduce basic physics concepts like force, polarity, and motion. It’s also a great choice for homeschoolers and science clubs.

Made in Georgia with Care

We build each kit in Rutledge, Georgia using smooth wood and strong magnets. Every piece is cut, drilled, and packed with care. That way, your build goes smoothly and your results look sharp.
