• Creative Kids at Home: Magnets
• Electricity and magnetism links provided by the Educational Technology Center, Kennesaw, Ga.
• Magnetism by Fact Monster.
• Magnetism by ThinkQuest. Includes some simple experiments.
• Magnet Man by Rick Hoadley. A site with lots of background information at different levels, with magnetism related experiments and useful links.
• Physics links on electricity and magnetism provided by The Science Spot Kid Zone.
• An Introduction to Geomagnetism. The IMAGE satellite tutorial on the Earth's magnetic field. The site includes a brief introduction to magnetism and a collection of classroom activities that help students understand Earth's magnetic field and its changes through space and time. Activities and projects are appropriate for a number of Grades (3-12) and include "Exploring the Earth as a Magnet" (Grades K-5), "Motion of the Magnetic Pole" (Grades 6-9) and "The Inverse-Cube Law for Magnetism" (Grades 9-12).

• Magnet Man by Rick Hoadley. A site with lots of background information at different levels, with magnetism related experiments and useful links. Experiments include Magnets in Motion, visualising magnetic fields and much more. The site also includes a list of magnetics books.
• Electronics experiments, including an introduction to magnetism and magnetizing a screwdriver.
