The kids would occasionally play around with a magnet and get nice rainbows on the TV. I took the "I" laminations out of an old transformer and would plug this in across the room and move slowly towards the TV waving it around and make the rainbows go away. Didn't want to confiscate magnets: too much fun.

This is OK with relatively weak toy magnets. Don't try a really strong magnet, it could permanently deform the shadow mask.
