Made from blown glass, the sphere transforms into a magnifying lens when partially or completely filled with water, revealing surprising visual effects through hands-on experimentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1771\" data-start=\"1428\"\u003eAs children fill the sphere with different amounts of water, the world seen through it changes. Objects may appear enlarged, reduced, flipped upside down or distorted in unexpected ways. When held under water with a large air bubble inside, the sphere creates further fascinating transformations, encouraging careful observation and curiosity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2102\" data-start=\"1773\"\u003eThrough these simple experiments, children begin to understand key optical principles — how a magnifying glass works, how lenses focus light, and how reflections and prism-like effects can occur. The shifting images and intermediate stages make each exploration feel new and engaging, inviting children to return again and again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2392\" data-start=\"2186\"\u003eMade in Germany by family-run brand \u003cstrong data-end=\"2231\" data-start=\"2222\"\u003eKraul\u003c\/strong\u003e, this thoughtful STEM learning tool supports calm, focused play and is particularly suited to home learning environments, classrooms and quiet discovery spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\" data-end=\"2392\" data-start=\"2186\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Shop the full Kraul range\" href=\"https:\/\/www.magicforestshop.com\/collections\/kraul?srsltid=AfmBOopHAeJlvpWbGIlVJlIOKhecArELtn5V0vG2C66tLHPTbufa4KLr\" style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShop the full Kraul range.
