NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC Mega Fossil and Gemstone Dig Kit - Excavate 20 Real Fossils and Gems, Science Kit for Kids, Rock Digging Excavation Kit, Geology Gifts for Boys and Girls (Amazon Exclusive)

This was a fun gift for a 9 year old. The box was a little smaller than I thought, but it was a good value for the money.

This is a lot of fun for the whole family! It’s just like your own archeological dig.

My children truly enjoyed the whole process from digging and the excitement of finding the different pieces and especially the water clean up to see exactly what they got. Will definitely get more to do. Very messy with multiple kids but with it to see the smiles and giggles.

I bought this for my sweetest nephew who is 3. This may be too advanced for him but I am the aunt who buys educational value gifts :). He seemed to love it. He kept saying, SAAAANND! The package for older children so I would say so too. He will continue to use it for years and for me that's value. It is small package so it won't take up space or make a huge mess. All parts were there.

I bought three of these for my girls. We used it as our Easter, find things and learn. The size of some are great, some are pretty small. They each thoroughly enjoyed finding and learning about everything they found. One issue we couldn't really explain was one of the three blocks had weird black long fibers or hair through the whole thing. Two of the blocks we are guessing it was the dessert rose, completely fell apart into little sharp flakes, almost fish flakes size, we couldn't save whatever it was at all 😕 we have counted 20 items out of each block, not including the ones that fell apart or completely gone through yet.

Bought this for my significant other. Shes 25 and having an absolute blast digging. Hopefully she doesn’t try to eat any rocks. 10/10 would recommend

He’s spent hours on this thing instead of playing with his Nintendo switch. That’s a win. Loads of fun for any rock, gem or fossil enthusiast. Little bit messy, but that’s part of the fun!

I am the grandma that does the messy projects with my three grandkids. They love digging for and finding treasures! Perfect gift!
