## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Neat stuff
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 7, 2013*

I have purchased this for my 6 year old daughter as she is a big fan of all things rock related and I thought this might be a way to channel her energy into learning about the world around her.  The case is neat and the included materials are varied and unique.  If I had a complaint it would be that the individual rocks are a little on the small size (think a marble) but  for the price it's hard to beat

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Glued in box
  

*by V***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 26, 2012*

I bought this for my 4 yr old granddaughter and was expecting them to be loose so she could hold and evaluate them.  They are glued in the case so I returned them.  However if that is what someone is expecting they are great.  I am updating this review as I have been charged for this item even though I have returned it.  There is no number to call to discuss this with any one so I'm hoping this will get some ones attention and contact me.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Quite some fun for kids
  

*by D***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 11, 2013*

The stones are somewhat small and they are glued into the box. On the one hand that makes them stay in place and the specimens won't get lost - but I had hoped to put them under a microscope for more detailed study. Small booklet that comes with it explains some of the minerals - but the selection is not blinky blink enough to gain much attention from my 5 year old. Maybe a bit later...
