Digging for dinosaurs.
It was a gifted for my 5 year old nephew. He shared some of the eggs with his 7 and 2 year old brothers. It was a time they shared methods and discussion on how to best get to the enclosed dinosaur. They thoroughly enjoyed the adventure. While the boys were digging away at their eggs, mom had an opportunity to just sit and watch. I highly recommend these eggs for young children to enjoy.

Fantastic bonding with my Grandkids over this one
So I have a grandchild that at this point in his life (5 years old) thinks he wants to become a paleontologist. So when I saw Dig it Up, I knew this would be a hit. What I did not know was how much it would bond the two of us as we did these together. He was so excited to figure out which dinosaur he was going to 'dig up' this time. Doing them over time is great because of the anticipation. Highly recommend this for the budding scientist.

That these educational gifts are the best.
This was my great-nephew's favorite Christmas gift. And all gifts from Mindware are a real hit with kids.

super fun activity for dino lovers!
I was given this product to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My 4yo and 6yo had a blast cracking into these eggs to discover the dinos inside. Piece of advice: move your paleontologists outside! These bad boys are messy! My 4yo did have some trouble extracting the little dinos, so I helped with the big pieces and then let her finish up. My 6yo could do it independently. Also makes for great imaginative dino play after! My 6yo loves spouting off the dino facts she learned.

My 4 year old girl and 7 year old girl both enjoyed opening an egg each day. Each egg comes individually wrapped in a plastic bag with instructions and a plastic chisel. I would definitely recommend this product for a family that is looking to keep their child entertained for half an hour and doesn’t mind cleaning up the mess. My girls loved it and even wanted to share some of the eggs with their friends. I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel!
