My girls loved it!

My eldest daughter (7 years old) bought this set with her own money. She had fun and was cute enough to let her little sister find some gems too. There are 15 gems inside the block so they had a lot of fun and enjoyed all the different gems. We ended up using a flathead screwdriver and a hammer along with the tools that came with it to make it easier to disassemble. Great set and lots of gems for kids. The set also included a booklet with a description of each gemstone. Happy kids!

Pros
  • Freehand
Cons
  • Vulgarity

A sea of ​​fun and discovery!

My son loves the Gem Grab Set! It was slow at first, but once he found the first gem, he quickly went through the whole stone. It doesn't have a small mallet like the other sets so we used my son's own play bench. The help of the hammer was enormous. The only complaint (from my son) is that it didn't have an agate stone. But he found one of the rest and 2 geodes. All in all it was a great purchase and I will be getting a set of fossils in the near future. PS Just a tip: I placed his brick in a…

  • Everything is fine!

15 gems were missing

After my son found eight gems he gave up and said nothing more. "Just keep digging. They're there." It was all torn to pieces, but it was National Geographic. Of course they were all there. "If I find another rock, will you return to it?" Of course he agreed. But I didn't I dug up these clumps where the only gems might be the size of pearls THEN I got out a bucket of hot water and dissolved these tiny clumps in it. Why the hell were there only eight gems? There was only one Gift from National…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Could have been a newer model

well there are some cool trinkets that my kids (4 and 6 years old) liked and amused them a bit. However, I was disappointed that the product must have been pre-opened and worse badly damaged. The magnifying glass was missing, which they probably didn't miss, but who knows. When I opened the box, the compressed sand/stone was badly damaged and split in three with a few gems - it kind of ruined the digging adventure. I couldn't send it back because of course the kids wanted to dig it up! So, on…

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • not as thick as the others

Amazing Gem Finder Kit

I cannot praise this item enough. We've used a gem mining kit before and it was awful. This one, which I put in my son's Easter basket, was wonderful. The clay was so easy to dig with the tools provided, even to the point where you could just break the clay into pieces. The drawing on the clay was so beautiful - it looked like a big crystal. The gems are great - big, great variety, in abundance. It also comes with a manual showing the different gems and what they are used for. I would buy this…

Pros
  • Constant Test Results
Cons
  • I will add later

Gems are better than 4M Crystal Mining Kit

Got this for my 10 year old son for Christmas and he thought he was the richest man in the world after seeing their 15 gems had dug up. We almost thought one of us had a flat tire but we didn't give up and eventually found the 15th stone which turned out to be a piece of a geode I accidentally broke so I told him it was a bonus now does he have it 16. The block has arrived. broken as seen in the first photo, no big deal. This kit would be even better if it included a case. I happened to have…

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Appearance

Definitely worth it

I ordered this for my son's 9th birthday. When we took it out of the box and planted it to begin with, it broke into 4 pieces, which proved very useful. The whole family loved it as he kept digging and the dirt is so soft that once most of it is removed you can just rip it out and shake it off. Thought we had them all but decided to break all the dirt and find another one that was easy so make sure you check everything out. As a result, we got 15 pretty neat and decent sizes. I took them…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Update availability
