   This is a really nice dig set! Our 8 year old wanted a diamond digger set so we purchased this one. He has had so many over the years so we needed something a little different. In the process of discovering all 12 gemstones he also learned that we have gemstones and why! They are smallish prices but most are questionable as to weather they are real stones or not. They look very clear like tinted pieces of glass or resin. The experience is what matters but my son has seen the real stones and Knowe the difference. He literally yelled at one point "Mom! I found a piece of glass!" Because he knew h d already found the diamond. I think it's absolutely nothing orth the money, though!

   Bought this as a Christmas gift for my 7 year old who loves rocks. It was a hit! She did make a big mess all over the counter and chairs so I suggest putting some newspaper down first but it was easy enough to clean up. The best part was that it kept her occupied and happy!

   Pleasantly surprised by the size and quality of the gemstones. My 8 year old granddaughter, my daughter and I had a blast excavating the stones. It was a bit messy - but we were adequately warned and took the necessary precautions.

   This was an awesome purchase. My daughter loves rocks and gemstones and this was right in her wheel house. There are several stones encased in this chunk of "dirt". Tools provided are decent quality and my 6 year-old was able to do most of the work. It does take a bit to get some of the stones free, but thats part of the fun, slowly revealing a hidden treasure. Adult help can be needed from time to time but again, it was part of the fun to do this together. After all the stones are dug up, you still have a good collection of stones to look at and the included book tells you more about the treasures you uncovered. Nothing bad to say about this wholesome, family friendly and educational activity!

   My 8-year-old stepdaughter nearly exploded with excitement during this project. She loved it so much. We did together with her 14-year-old cousin and they both absolutely loved it. The 8-year-old was less interested in identifying the gems and more interesting finding them.

   Bought this for my 5yo for Christmas. She sat and chiseled away at this kit for over an hour. For an older child it might go much quicker, but she was happy and engaged the whole time. The dust/dirt from this kit gets everywhere, so be prepared to vacuum.Overall we were very happy with this kit and would definitely buy another like it again.

   So much fun to do! I bought this for my 10 year old sister and My teenage sisters wound up helping as well lol. It was a good time. We ended up doing it over a 2-day period, we didn't use water, only the tools that came with it. So it'd be more like an archaeological dig. I think she ended up with about 7 or 8 stones total. Would definitely be something worth purchasing again down the road. Very fun 💕

   My daughter wanted this set for some time and finally ordered it with some of her holiday money. She had fun beating all the gems out of what was basically a giant piece of chalk. This is very, very messy. Do outside in a spot that you don't mind the mess or can easily wash the chalk pieces and dust away. There are no incredible or particularly interesting gem specimens in this set, but they are pretty rocks that kids seem to like.

   My kids loved this. Especially my 6 year old son. He spent 2 days scraping and picking away to expose the crystals and was so excited each time he found a new one. We thought we were shorted 2, after we had broken the mass up into little chunks but I poked back through the rubble and found 2 more. They were small but still nice. We just ordered another set because he enjoyed this one so much. Anything that helps keep him off the electronics and engaged is a winner for me! Highly recommend! The stones I closed are all nice quality and sizes. We were able to identify them using the book that came with it, which gave nice descriptions and background I formation about the stones, including the place of origin.
