Fun but super messy
Fun, hands-on activity for my 6 year old. She loves it and has played with it twice now. She finds 2-3 gems each time she plays with it for about 45 min. The only downside is it's SUPER messy. Even with using the mat that comes with the kit and paper towels under, there is a lot of the clay/debris all over the chair and floor when she's done.

Giant Gem Discovery is really fun!
I purchased this for my 6 year old grandson and we worked on it together. He enjoyed it very much, but thought that he would get one of each of the stones featured on the poster. Aside from slight disappointment about that, he loved it!

Best Gift EVER!
This was a gift for my 'hard to buy for' grandson, 9 years old -- they are so technically sophisticated, but my daughter told me it was his favorite gift and he put his 'finds and poster' on his wall in his room. And even after New Year's my grandson took me aside and said, 'Grandma, I had the most fun digging out my jewels, thank you so much!'. This is a wonderful gift, keep these coming!

Kid approved
My 8 year old son requested to rate this 5 stars, he says, “I love it so much!” It kept his attention pretty well and he dug up all the stones in 2 days. Just fyi for the parents, it is a bit on the messy side!

Fun and educational experience
My 6 year old granddaughter and I enjoyed this experience together and I would definitely recommend it to children of 5 and above. She loved finding the stones and matching them up with the materials provided, especially the large poster. I would recommend doing the project outdoors or in the garage as it does make quite a mess.

We're mineralologists!
This was great for two 4 yr olds and a 6yr old to occupy most of an afternoon. They loved the mess and discovery. Make sure you do this outside and don't let a new puppy eat the fallout or drink the soaking bucket. Needs adult supervision to get them going and occasional reminders to keep some distance from each other if more than one kid is poking into the mass.
