When I was studying in elementary school, I had no idea as to how magnets were made. But my classmates suggested a method to make magnets. They asked me to take some clay and mix it with some leaves and with some other materials (I forgot the name of the tree, and the name of the other materials) and place it under sunlight for a week. They believed this was the method to make magnets. We tried it out, but no magnet was formed. In those days, we were very curious about magnets. And so are we even now. Anyways, it is one of my memories......
I laugh at myself and at my friends, when I remember this......
