Magnets are indeed quite strong. A person can even injure himself with them. Review the checklist at http://www.supermagnete.ch/warning.php?pdf. Magnets are at work in many objects which we use everyday. Magnetic forces are invisible to our eyes, but nevertheless they have an effect on our bodies. Certain people believe that these forces are dangerous. What is true about it and what is myth?

Who is explore-it

gemeinnütziger Vereina charitable association
The service agreements with the supporters of explore-it stipulate beginning with the project status that explore-it will become a provider of teaching and learning materials. It was not possible to provide materials and services for sale, being a research and development project of the Schools of Education. For this reason, the association was founded in cooperation with the partners of explore-it. The goal of the association is the promotion of technical understanding and natural sciences for children and youth. The association is exclusively non-profit and is tax-free since February 2010. The explore-it materials are assembled at the ARWO (sheltered workshop for persons with disabilities) in Wettingen in Argovia, Switzerland.
 
StiftungFoundation
To obtain advantage of donor funds and using them for specified purpose, the association created in august 2012 the "explore-it foundation". The aim is to promote understanding and innovation of children and adolescents in science and technology and to support and fund activities of the explore-it association.

Forschungs- und Entwicklungsprojekta research and development project
explore-it goes back to a spin-off of the University of Teacher Education Valais (PHVS) and the PH of the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland (PH FHNW) from 2008.
