Having bought a similar kit several years ago, I’m in a good position to review and compare this kit.
This set is very well thought out and everything needed is included. As well as the tools for digging & cleaning the ‘finds’, there are protective/safety items such as goggles, a dust mask, and a tablecloth/dust sheet.
The set is very messy. There’s no getting away from the fact that these kits create a lot of dust. This time of year is ideal as the digging can be done outdoors!
The range of gems is very good, and there are some unusual inclusions, which my son didn’t have from previous purchases.
Also included is a Crystal growing kit. Again, this is something we’ve done before, but my son loved doing it again. It’s quick and easy to set up, but takes around a week to finish growing.
Very impressive set. Great value for money. Would recommend.
This set is lots of fun. It comes really nicely packaged so would make a really nice gift. My daughter really enjoyed playing with this. It’s all really great quality and really good value for money.
I was very pleased to receive this product, at the time I received it, it was priced at 16.99 less a 2 voucher and I consider this to be good value for money. It was well packaged.
This gave my grandson an hour of fun – he absolutely loved it. Such a satisfying game.
I recommend this product!
This is a cool idea and my nephew enjoyed it a lot. Only issue is they were quite hard to break open and it’s definitely something you would have to do for your child, which kind of takes away the fun for them.
The vendors description, measurements and pictures are accurate and correct.
This product is fabby for any little budding geologist. It has loads of interest factors: digging for many gems, cracking open a geode and growing crystals for themselves. It comes with a few tools with which to find the gems.
My 11y daughter loved playing with this kit, and was absolutely fascinated by the geode.
Be aware though, that the digging for the gems does cause quite a bit of dust!
I highly recommend this product and think it would make an amazing gift.
I have a large crystal collection that I keep in a display cabinet, my kids are always asking to play with them but due to how fragile and expensive they are I have to always say no. It came across this gemstone digging kit and thought it was something they would be interested in. They absolutely loved it and my daughter has even asked if she could start collecting stones like mummy does.
It comes with a large mound that the kids have to dig through with the supplied tools in order to find assorted gems, crystals and stones. Also included is a crystal growing kit that does take about a week to fully form. There’s a geode included which can be broken open to reveal crystals inside. There is also a bunch of stone so the kids can start their own collection. It came with a tablecloth to help protect the table, safety goggles, all the tools needed to dig and to grow the crystal. As I said, my kids loved it and I think it’s definitely worth the money. It would make a lovely gift for a kids birthday.
I ordered the Gemstones Dig Kit. This is a brilliant kit. There is the main dig with all the equipment. This includes finding the geode, which then needs to be cracked open. You also get the crystal growing set, which takes about a week to finish growing. There are some information cards about each crystal, so you can learn a bit about each one. I would say it is not suitable for very young children and would be better suited to ages 7 to 10. You will need to supervise and get involved as well. I think this is a great fun kit which will also teach your children a little bit whilst they have fun. I can definitely recommend it.
I’ve had the pleasure of watching my kids explore this gemstone dig kit for the past week, and it’s been a delightful experience for them. The kit is well-made, and the tools included make the excavation process feel very authentic. The hammer, chisel, brush, goggles, and magnifying glass are all sturdy and just the right size for small hands. Overall a fun experience for the kids.
My kids totally love these things, so this was a great set to get, there seems to be more to do and to get out of this kit compared to others (even branded ones)
This is great for kids to just get into collecting crystals and rocks. For a STEM educational gift it really is great as you can a bit more than just chip away at the plaster to get to your rocks, there is a grow your own crystal experiment, and think the fact not comes with a mask and a table cloth to keep the dust from your children’s faces n lungs and off the table top too. Great well thought out.
Especially if you have a tactile child who doesn’t like things like dust near their faces etc.
Great value, would very much recommend this.
