My 10 year old grandaon loves his collection of rocks

love them

Way more rocks than I was expecting!Got these to stuff an advent calendar for my kids, and I was able to do about a dozen of each kind (except hematite) spread throughout the month AND have a ton leftover to give to a friend's kiddo!Only downside was 4 pieces of hematite in the entire box, but the rest had quite a few (see picture spread out on the included poster).Book is great; my kids loved reading about each kind, and liked the blank, lined page at the end to make scientific notes.There were no broken pieces or dust in the box, just a bunch of pretty gemstones!Highly recommend!

I loved this mystery of stones inside. What is in the booklet is mostly in the box, its random for sure, a lot of nice mixed shaped stones inside. I did see some duplicates of the same size and shape, kind of made me wonder a bit but for the most part I loved this box. Can't wait to get the bigger stones next.

I split this up between a couple of stockings at Christmas. It was a huge hit.

Nice box of stones. Fun to watch the grandkids pick through them and look them up in the pamplet.

I love these polished rocks! They are all super smooth and shiny. A couple thinner ones are broken but there are so many of each type that it's no big deal. The paperwork included identifying them is super helpful.I've put a couple in my daughter's Christmas advent calendar daily and she looks forward to it every single morning. She is hoarding her gems in a large coin purse and shows them to anyone who will look. I'm sure we'll put the extra to good use.

Love the mixture of gems. Could of evened out the selection a little better. But over all good.
