How long does each dig take to complete?

On average, each excavation takes about 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the child’s pace and how thoroughly they dig.

Does it come with everything needed to start?

Yes, each kit includes the eggs, digging tools, and a guidebook with facts about the discoveries. No additional supplies are required.

Are there duplicates in the set?

No—every egg reveals a unique dinosaur, so kids end up with a full dozen different new friends.

Is this activity messy?

Digging does create clay crumbs, so most families work on a tray, newspaper or outdoors for quick clean-up.

What ages and group sizes is it best for?

Designed for explorers age 4 + and packed with tools, it’s perfect for solo digs, play-dates or whole-class science centers.
