Steel Ringed Chips are a vibrant and durable resource for exploring magnetism in early years and primary science lessons. While they may appear to be ordinary counters, each chip contains a securely embedded steel ring that makes them easily attracted to magnets. Their internal design ensures safety and longevity-there are no loose or detachable parts, making them ideal for repeated handling by young learners. Supplied in assorted colours, they are visually engaging and help bring magnetism concepts to life in a fun and practical way.
