A discussion of crystal field theory is usually included in general chemistry texts. This is likely to be one of only two places in the text - the other is the description of the hydrogen atom - where the important concept of light absorption by atoms and molecules is presented. The simple demonstration described here can perhaps enhance the presentation of crystal field splitting and magnetic properties in octahedral complexes.
