1. Hand them a magnet. "This is magic — it sticks to some things but not others. Let's find out which!" 2. Walk around and try: fridge — sticks! Wood table — nope. Spoon — sticks! 3. Ask before each: "What do you think — will it stick?" Let them predict. 4. "Everything it sticks to is made of metal. That's the magnet's secret!"
