Notes
- If you have other magnetic objects, you can add these to your bottle or make separate bottles for each item
- Add in some non-magnetic items to use in a science lesson about what is magnetic and what isn't
- Try adding mineral oil or baby oil to the bottle - Just add the magnetic objects, then fill the bottle around ⅔ to ¾ full of mineral or baby oil
- You could add water instead of the mineral or baby oil, though this may cause the objects to rust
- Rice could also be added instead of water or oil
