Using the experience gained from working with teachers and students and the latest achievements in magnetism, we have developed a series of simple experiments using neodymium magnets. Some of the experiments are directly oriented to the curricula of primary and secondary schools, the others serve as a basis for additional teaching and project tasks. Many physical phenomena can be demonstrated in

Of course, in addition to the experiment, it is necessary to tell an interesting story. Therefore, in this text, I have described some basic ideas from the history of magnetism and given some basic explanations about the phenomenon of magnetism. Although in this lecture I will present experiments from different areas of physics, this text is primarily devoted to the magnetism of matter, which is not significantly represented in the curriculum.
