Science Material

Magnets Activity Set (Product Code: SLE/SM/01) is a hands-on magnetism experiment kit used to teach early learners about polarity and magnetic attraction and repulsion in pre-primary and primary classrooms. It combines durable magnets in several shapes — bar, ring and horseshoe magnets, magnetic bugs and snap-on cars — with a maze tray, 10 double-sided activity cards and an activity guide with reproducible materials. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

Contents of the set:

• 2 magnetic bugs
• 2 bar magnets
• 4 ring magnets
• Horseshoe magnet
• Magnetic post
• 2 snap-on cars
• Tray with maze
• String
• 10 double-sided activity cards
• Comprehensive activity guide with reproducible materials

What Is the Magnets Activity Set Used For?

Young children use the set to discover what magnets do by playing with them: stacking the ring magnets on the magnetic post to see like poles push apart, pulling the snap-on cars along with a bar magnet without touching them, and steering pieces through the maze tray. The activity cards turn each discovery into a short, guided task.

Work in small groups so every child handles the magnets, and let pupils predict what will happen before each test. As a hands-on science kit for primary school classes, it pairs well with a simple “sticks or does not stick” sorting activity using classroom objects. Keep magnets away from phones and computers, and supervise young children because the set contains small pieces.

Bar Magnet (Plastic) (Product Code: SLE/LSM/01) is a set of two plastic-cased bar magnets used to show magnetic poles, attraction, repulsion and field patterns in primary and middle-school science lessons. Each bar is made of 3 rectangular ceramic magnets covered in a non-toxic plastic box, and iron filings come with the set for field-pattern activities. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for schools that need a bar magnet for school use in India.

Key Details

What Is the Plastic Bar Magnet Used For?

With two bars, pupils can bring ends together to feel like poles push apart and unlike poles pull together, hang one bar from a thread to watch it settle along a north–south line, and test which classroom objects are magnetic. Sprinkling the iron filings on a sheet of paper laid over a bar reveals the field pattern around its poles.

The plastic casing makes the bars easy for children to hold and helps protect the brittle ceramic magnets inside from chipping if dropped. Always put the filings on paper or card rather than directly on the magnet, so they can be collected and reused. The set is a simple starting point for teachers building a science kit for students in India on magnetism.

Supplier

This bar magnet set is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which uses the trading name ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana. We supply it to primary and secondary schools, activity centres and dealers in India and international markets as a sourced item in our Science Material range.

Bug Box (Product Code: SLE/LSM/02) is a small circular viewing pot used to hold insects and other small objects so children can see them magnified during nature study in primary classrooms and outdoor lessons. The pot is 50 mm in diameter and gives 4X magnification, making it a simple addition to an insect collection kit for school field trips. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Bug Box Used For?

Children gently place an ant, beetle, woodlouse, seed or petal in the pot, close it and look in to count legs, spot antennae or follow the veins on a leaf. Because the creature is held inside the pot, pupils can watch it move without handling it, and several children can take turns looking at the same find.

For school groups it works as a hands-free alternative to a hand lens magnifier, since nobody has to hold the subject and the lens at the same time. Keep observation times short, keep the pot out of direct sun, and release living creatures where they were found before cleaning the pot for the next lesson.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the name under which Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, Ambala, Haryana, supplies the Bug Box to primary schools, nature clubs, activity centres and dealers in India and international markets.

Kaleidoscope (Product Code: SLE/LSM/03) is a hand-held optical toy used to show how reflections repeat into symmetrical, changing patterns in primary science and early-learning classrooms. Teachers of young learners use it for play-based lessons on light and symmetry, and at 0.09 kg it sits easily in small hands. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, and fits well into a hands-on science kit for primary school classes.

Specifications

What Is the Kaleidoscope Used For?

A kaleidoscope works by bouncing light between mirror surfaces inside a tube, so a small patch of colour is repeated around a centre point. In class it turns an abstract idea — reflection and symmetry — into something a child can see and describe. A simple activity is to let each pupil look, turn the end slowly, and then draw the pattern they saw, counting how many times one shape repeats.

It works well as an opening activity in an optics experiment kit for school, before pupils try a single plane mirror or a periscope. Ask children to aim it at a bright window, a lamp or a coloured picture, never directly at the Sun. Keep it in a box between lessons so the viewing end stays clean and unscratched.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades as ScienceLab and supplies this Kaleidoscope from Ambala, Haryana, as one of the learning items in its Science Material range for early-years and primary classrooms. Preschools, schools, dealers and importers in India and international markets can order a single piece or enough for a whole class. You can read about the company on the ScienceLab profile page.

Related Science Material

These items build on the same lesson about light, mirrors and seeing:

• Periscope — another mirror-based viewer that shows how light can be turned round a corner.

• Kaleidoscope seven colours — a demonstration piece for showing the colours of the spectrum to a whole class.
• Lens Big — a large hand lens for the next step in a beginner optics lesson.

See the full Science Material range for more early-learning science items.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Kaleidoscope used for in a classroom?
The Kaleidoscope (SLE/LSM/03) is used to introduce reflection and symmetry to young learners. Pupils look through it, turn the end and watch one patch of colour repeat around a centre, then describe or draw the pattern as a simple observation exercise.

What are the size and weight of the Kaleidoscope?
The Kaleidoscope is listed at 21 × 11.5 × 4 cm with a weight of 0.09 kg. The listing does not say whether these figures are for the item alone or as packed, so ask us if you need the exact item size for storage or display.

How should children use the Kaleidoscope safely?
Children should point the Kaleidoscope at a lamp, a bright window or a coloured picture and never directly at the Sun. Handle it gently, avoid dropping it on hard floors, and let a teacher supervise younger groups so the viewing end stays clean and intact.

Lens Big (Product Code: SLE/LSM/04) is a large hand lens used to enlarge leaves, seeds, insects, fabric and print during primary science and nature-study lessons. Its 75 mm diameter gives a wide field of view at 2.25X magnification, so two or three children can look through one lens together. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for schools that want a simple hand lens magnifier for school science.

Specifications

What Is the Big Lens Used For?

A big, low-power lens is the easiest magnifier for young learners. At 2.25X the whole object stays in view, so a child can follow an ant across a leaf or compare the veins of two leaves without losing the subject. Typical activities include looking at soil and sand grains, comparing fingerprints, examining flower parts and reading very small print.

Show pupils to hold the lens still and move the object, or keep the object still and move the lens, until the image is sharp. Never look at the Sun through a lens, and do not leave it lying in direct sunlight, because a lens can focus the Sun’s rays and scorch paper or skin. Wipe it with a soft cloth to avoid scratches that blur the view.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited in Ambala, Haryana, which supplies the Lens Big as part of its Science Material learning range. Pre-primary and primary schools, activity centres, dealers and importers in India and international markets can request it on its own or with other observation items. Learn more on the company profile.

Related Science Material

Pair the Lens Big with these items for observation and nature-study lessons:

• Bug Box — holds a small insect still so children can study it under the lens.
• Linen Tester — a 10x fold-up magnifier for finer detail once pupils are confident with a hand lens.
• Minibeast Magnifier — another option for looking closely at small creatures found outdoors.
• Microfiber Lens Cloth — for wiping the lens clean without scratching it.

More early-learning items are listed on the Science Material page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What magnification and size is the Lens Big?
The Lens Big (SLE/LSM/04) magnifies 2.25X and has a lens diameter of 75 mm. The low power keeps the whole object in view, and the large lens lets young children find the subject quickly, which suits early-years and primary observation work.

How is the Lens Big different from the Linen Tester?
The Lens Big gives a wide 75 mm view at 2.25X for whole leaves, insects and objects, while the Linen Tester is a fold-up magnifier at 10x for close texture such as cloth fibres or paper. Many schools use the Lens Big first and the Linen Tester later.

What is the Lens Big made of?
The Lens Big listing states its 2.25X magnification and 75 mm diameter but not the lens or handle material. If material matters for your age group or tender, ask us through the contact page and we will confirm it before you order.

How should the Lens Big be cleaned and stored?
Clean the Lens Big with a soft, dry lens cloth and store it in a box or drawer out of direct sunlight. Sunlight passing through any lens can be focused into a hot spot, and a scratched surface makes the magnified image less clear.

Who supplies the Lens Big?
The Lens Big is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala in Haryana, India. The company supplies Science Material items to schools, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

Can schools buy the Lens Big for a whole class?

Linen Tester (Product Code: SLE/LSM/05) is a fold-up 10x magnifier used to examine the fine texture of cloth, paper, skin and other surfaces in school science and textile lessons. Students and teachers use it when a simple hand lens is not strong enough, and its high-clarity lens folds flat for carrying and storage. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a compact magnifier loupe for lab and classroom work.

Specifications

What Is a Linen Tester Used For?

The name comes from the textile trade, where a folding magnifier is laid on fabric to inspect the weave. In a school lab the Linen Tester does the same job for any flat sample: students can see how threads cross in cotton and synthetic cloth, how fibres mat together in paper, and the fine lines and pores on the back of the hand. It also shows printed colour dots, leaf surfaces and grains of salt or sugar in clear detail.

To use it, open the magnifier and rest it over the sample, then bring your eye close to the lens and adjust until the surface is sharp. Good light from a window or desk lamp makes a big difference at 10x. Fold it closed after use to protect the lens, and never leave it in direct sunlight, where any lens can concentrate the Sun’s heat.

Supplier

The Linen Tester is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala company behind the ScienceLab name, within its Science Material range. It is offered to schools, colleges, textile and craft teaching units, dealers and importers across India and international markets. Company background is on the ScienceLab profile.

• Folding Magnifier, Single — another pocket-size option for field and bench work.
• Lens Tissue — for cleaning the lens without leaving lint or scratches.

Browse the Science Material category for more hands-on learning items.

Frequently Asked Questions

What magnification does the Linen Tester give?
The Linen Tester (SLE/LSM/05) magnifies 10x through a high-clarity lens in a fold-up frame. That is strong enough to see individual threads in cloth and fibres in paper, while still being easy for students to hold and focus without a microscope.

What can students examine with the Linen Tester?
The Linen Tester is listed for looking at the texture of cloth, paper and skin, among other things. In practice it also works well on leaf surfaces, printed colour dots, coins, stamps and small crystals, so it fits biology, chemistry and textile activities.

Should I choose the Linen Tester or the Lens Big?
Choose the Linen Tester when students need 10x detail on a small flat area such as a fabric weave. Choose the Lens Big when young children need a wide, low-power view of a whole leaf or insect. Many schools stock both for different age groups.

Does the Linen Tester have a measuring scale or built-in light?
The Linen Tester listing does not mention a measuring scale, reticle or light, so do not assume one is fitted. If you need thread counting marks or illumination, ask us through the contact page before ordering and we will confirm what is available.

Number Balance (Product Code: SLE/LSM/06) is a beam-type maths balance used to show equality, addition and number bonds in pre-primary and primary classrooms. Teachers use it so children can see a sum “balance” before they write it, and at a listed 0.27 kg and 36 × 13 × 3.5 cm it fits on a group table. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, and suits a KG science activity kit in India.

Specifications

What Is a Number Balance Used For?

A number balance turns the equals sign into something children can watch. Weights are placed at numbered positions on the two arms of a beam, and the beam settles level only when both sides add up to the same total. A child who hangs weights at 3 and 5 on one side and finds the matching position on the other has discovered that 3 + 5 = 8 without being told.

The same idea supports number bonds, missing-number problems, doubling and early multiplication as repeated addition. Set the balance on a flat, steady table and check that the empty beam sits level before the lesson starts. Let children place weights gently, one at a time, and ask them to predict the result before they let go.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, supplies the Number Balance as part of its Science Material range for early learning. For school vendor registration, the supplying company’s details are CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597 and GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT. Schools, preschools, dealers and importers in India and international markets can read more on the company profile.

Related Science Material

These maths and balance items extend the same early-number lessons:

• Balance Mathematical — another balance for comparing quantities in the maths corner.
• Dish Balance with Weight Number — uses pans and numbered weights to compare mass and number.
• Number Mat — floor-based counting practice before children move to the balance.
• Number Sticks — hands-on number bonds that can be checked on the balance.

Find more early-years items on the Science Material category page.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Number Balance teach?
The Number Balance (SLE/LSM/06) teaches equality, addition, number bonds and missing-number problems. Children place weights on both arms and see the beam level only when the two sides are equal, which gives them a physical meaning for the equals sign.

What are the size and weight of the Number Balance?
The Number Balance is listed at 36 × 13 × 3.5 cm and 0.27 kg. The listing does not say whether these are item or packed figures, so ask us if you need exact measurements for shelving, kit boxes or a tender schedule.

How many weights come with the Number Balance?
The Number Balance listing gives its size and weight but not the number of weights or the numbering range on the beam. Please ask us through the contact page, and we will confirm the contents before you place an order.

How should the Number Balance be set up in class?
Place the Number Balance on a flat, stable table and check that the empty beam rests level. Add weights gently one at a time, and keep spare weights in a small tray or box so none are lost between lessons.

Who supplies the Number Balance?
The Number Balance is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies Science Material and maths learning items to schools, preschools, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

Periscope (Product Code: SLE/LSM/07) is a simple optical instrument used to observe from a concealed position, and to teach the reflection of light in primary and middle-school science. It is a tube with a mirror at each end, the two mirrors set parallel to each other and at 45° to the line between them, so students can see over a wall or round a corner. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for any junior lab kit for primary school.

Specifications

What Is a Periscope Used For?

In the classroom the Periscope is the clearest everyday proof that light travels in straight lines and changes direction only when it is reflected. Light entering the top opening meets the first mirror at 45°, turns through a right angle down the tube, and is turned again by the second mirror into the viewer’s eye. Because the mirrors are parallel, the scene appears the right way up.

A good lesson has pupils crouch behind a bench and read a chart held above it, then draw the ray diagram showing the two reflections. Older students can link the design to submarines and to watching over crowds. Keep fingers off the mirror surfaces, wipe them only with a soft cloth, and never point the Periscope at the Sun.

Supplier

This Periscope comes from the Science Material range supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the company that trades as ScienceLab in Ambala, Haryana. Schools, tuition and activity centres, dealers and importers across India and international markets can order it on its own or with other light and optics items. More about the company is on our profile page.

Related Science Material

Use these items alongside the Periscope in lessons on reflection:

• Plane Mirror — lets students measure the angles of a single reflection before explaining the Periscope.
• Kaleidoscope — shows what happens when light reflects many times between mirrors.
• Prism – Acrylic, Set of 7 — for comparing reflection by mirrors with the bending of light by prisms.

The Science Material page lists the rest of this early-science range.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Periscope work?
The Periscope (SLE/LSM/07) uses two parallel mirrors, one at each end of a tube, each set at 45°. Light from the object is turned through a right angle by the top mirror and again by the bottom mirror, so the viewer sees the scene from a hidden position.

Which science topics does the Periscope support?
The Periscope supports lessons on how light travels in straight lines, the law of reflection and drawing ray diagrams. It also gives a practical link to real uses such as submarines, which helps pupils remember why the mirrors are angled as they are.

What length and material is the Periscope?
The Periscope listing describes its tube and the 45° parallel mirror arrangement but does not state the tube length or the materials used. Please ask us through the contact page if these details are needed for a tender or for younger age groups.

How should the Periscope be looked after?
Store the Periscope in a dry cupboard, keep fingers off the mirror surfaces and clean them gently with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid dropping it, because a knocked mirror can shift from its 45° angle and the view through the tube will no longer line up.

Who supplies the Periscope?
The Periscope is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies Science Material items to schools, dealers and importers throughout India and in international markets.

Can the Periscope be ordered as a class set?
Yes, the Periscope can be quoted as single pieces or as class and bulk quantities. Tell us how many you need and where they should be delivered, and ScienceLab will prepare a quotation for delivery in India or to an international address.

Solar Filter (Product Code: SLE/LSM/08) is a sun-viewing filter made of double sheets of aluminium polymer film, used to look at the Sun during eclipse and astronomy lessons in schools. Teachers use it so a class can watch the Sun’s disc and a passing eclipse under supervision, instead of looking with bare eyes. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as part of its early-science range and a useful addition to an earth science kit in India.

Key Details

What Is a Solar Filter Used For?

Looking straight at the Sun can damage the eyes within moments, so astronomy lessons need a filter placed between the eye and the Sun. The Solar Filter lets a class follow a partial or annular solar eclipse, see the Sun as a clean disc, and discuss why the Moon’s shadow moves across it. It turns a topic usually taught from diagrams into a shared observation.

Before every use, hold the film up to a lamp and check both sheets for scratches, pinholes, creases or tears; do not use a damaged filter. Cover both eyes with the filter before facing the Sun and look away before lowering it. Never use it together with binoculars, a telescope, a camera or a magnifier, because concentrated sunlight can burn through the film, and always have an adult supervising children.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited sources and supplies the Solar Filter under its ScienceLab trading name from Ambala, Haryana, within its Science Material range. Schools, science clubs, planetariums, dealers and importers in India and international markets can order it ahead of eclipse events or for regular astronomy teaching. See the ScienceLab company profile for more about the business.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Solar Filter made of?
The Solar Filter (SLE/LSM/08) is made of double sheets of aluminium polymer film for viewing the Sun. The listing does not give the frame type or overall size, so ask us through the contact page if you need those details before ordering.

Which safety standard or optical density does the Solar Filter meet?
The Solar Filter listing describes the film but does not state a solar-viewing safety standard or optical density. Ask us for these details before buying for an eclipse event, and follow your local astronomy or health authority’s advice on safe solar viewing.

How do students use the Solar Filter safely?
Students should check the Solar Filter for scratches, pinholes or tears, cover both eyes with it before facing the Sun, and look away before lowering it. It must never be used with binoculars, telescopes, cameras or magnifiers, and children should always be supervised by an adult.

When should the Solar Filter be replaced?
Replace the Solar Filter as soon as the film shows any scratch, pinhole, crease or tear, because damaged film can let unfiltered sunlight reach the eye. Store it flat in an envelope or box, away from sharp objects, so the sheets stay intact between uses.

Who supplies the Solar Filter?
The Solar Filter is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies Science Material items to schools, science clubs, dealers and importers in India and in international markets.

Can schools order Solar Filters in bulk before an eclipse?
Yes, the Solar Filter can be quoted in class and bulk quantities for schools, clubs, dealers and importers. Enquire early with the quantity and delivery location so the quotation and dispatch can be planned well before the eclipse date you are preparing for.
