If you are looking for a fun and really addictive gadget for a gift this is the perfect choise given the upcoming holidays are quite close.

This paper is so intriguing because it enables you to view the varying magnetic patterns of individual magnets. Take the obscure and begin “viewing” it like it’s magic. The magnetic viewing paper is made of millions of tiny metal particles that are suspended in oil within a 20 x 50mm laminated sheet of plastic. When a magnet is placed next to this “viewing paper”, the particles become magnetized.

The Magnetic Viewing Paper available for just $1.95 a piece.
