Learn about the magic of magnets with this mini mine and dump truck activity.
Massive open-cut mines and round-the-clock fleets of gigantic dump trucks are familiar sights in the Midwest. Each truck can haul loads of up to 400 tonnes!
Now, you can experience the mineral property of magnetism by making your own mini mine and dump truck that moves through a maze using the magic of magnets.
