The Magnetic Doodle Drawing Board provides a hands-on, low-tech introduction to key STEM concepts. Students will explore the principles of magnetism and magnetic fields by using a magnetic stylus to draw patterns, shapes, and designs. This activity develops fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and spatial reasoning. It also encourages creative problem-solving and experimentation with cause and effect, as students discover how magnetic particles respond to the stylus. The board can be used to illustrate lessons on magnetic forces, materials science, and basic engineering design in a tactile, engaging format.
This product is suitable for students in Foundation to Year 2 (ages 4–7) as an introductory STEM tool. It aligns with early primary school subjects including Science, Design and Technologies, and Mathematics. The Magnetic Doodle Drawing Board is ideal for classroom centres, independent exploration, and teacher-led demonstrations in lower primary settings.
Science (F–2): Supports ACSSU005 (objects are made of materials that have observable properties) and ACSSU033 (a push or a pull affects how an object moves or changes shape). Students can investigate magnetic materials and the effect of magnetic force.
Design and Technologies (F–2): Links to ACTDEK001 (exploring how technologies use forces) and ACTDEK004 (designing solutions that meet needs). The board can be used for prototyping simple patterns or communication aids.
STEM F–10 Integrated: Encourages inquiry-based learning, observation, and recording of data. The board supports cross-curricular outcomes in problem-solving and creative thinking.
No coding required. The Magnetic Doodle Drawing Board is a fully analogue, screen-free learning tool that promotes hands-on discovery without the need for digital devices or software.
Each Magnetic Doodle Drawing Board includes:
All components are made from child-safe, non-toxic materials and are designed for repeated classroom use.
The Magnetic Doodle Drawing Board requires no power source, batteries, or internet connection. It can be used on any flat surface, such as a desk or mat. For whole-class activities, one board per student or pair is recommended. For small group work, a set of 4–6 boards allows collaborative exploration. No additional materials are needed, though teachers may wish to provide paper for recording observations. The board is lightweight and portable, making it easy to store in classroom trays or bins.
Each Magnetic Doodle Drawing Board is covered by a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects.
