Can anyone think of 5 uses for magnets in the house. I've done the
fridge door and speakers but need another three. I need to know where
they are used and what they are doing.

...and yes. I _am_ asking for help with my 8 year old son's homework Smile

Computer hard disc drives.

A picture frame I've got attaches it's back with magnets.

The front of my fireplace in the living room also attaches with
magnets.

Cupboard doors, anything with an electric motor, some types of
electronic scales, vital components of the 'magnetron' in a
microwave...

across the disk instead of moving a bit of paper / plastic in and out.
