The Big Idea

You have learned lots of cool things about magnets. Now here is how to take care of them. Storing magnets the right way keeps them strong, and keeps everyone safe.

A Closed Box

Step one: a closed box. Keep magnets in a closed box away from small children, phones, and cards. Do not toss magnets in a bag where they can snap onto metal.

Use a Keeper

Step two: use a keeper. Pairs of bar magnets can be stored with opposite poles together, with a small piece of steel across the ends, called a keeper. This helps the magnets keep their power.

Keep Them Dry

Step three: keep them dry. Store magnets dry, because moisture can rust them. A dry spot keeps your magnets working well for a long time.

A Closer Look

Let's take a closer look! Use a closed box. Put opposite poles together. Add a keeper across the ends. Keep everything dry.
