Explore the world of a geologist as you dig and reveal precious gemstones with the Discovery Gemstone Dig! Put on your safety goggles, then use real excavation tools to dig and unearth 11 precious gemstones! As the stones are revealed, carefully chisel around them, brush away the debris, and use the included magnifying glass to take a closer look at the patterns and colors within each gorgeous stone — what makes each one unique?! Then, like a real geologist, use the ceramic streak plate to determine the color of the minerals in powdered form. The Discovery Gemstone Dig isn’t just the perfect start to an amazing rock collection, it makes learning about geology, archeology, and gemology. So whether you're looking for a staycation activity, sleepover idea, or fun group activity, this STEM kit is a great choice. Not only does it encourage critical thinking, but it helps strengthen observation and fine motor skills. It's interactive and fun for scientists age 12 and up!
