4.0 out of 5 starsGood Introduction to Gemstone for kids
Reviewed in Canada on March 21, 2020
The kids is great for the price, kids had a fun 30 minutes digging out the gems and cleaning it afterwards.
The dig also create minimal dust, which are great for parents, not alot of cleaning up after. We did it on a baking tray, I would suggest spraying little water to kill the dust also.

My only problem is the gems is on the surface of the dig (where the logo is), you quickly find all the rocks which makes the fun die out fast. Also the gems are smaller than expected.
Otherwise is good introduction for the price.

2.0 out of 5 starsOnly received 9 stones, not the 11 stated on the box
Reviewed in Canada on September 30, 2019
Only received 9 stones not the 11 stated on the box. One of the missing ones being amethyst that is listed on the box. I gave this to my daughter as part of her birthday gift, she was so excited to open it and dig them out. When we only got 9 she was so sad and in her own words "we were scammed!" She was excited to dig out the amethyst.. I feel sad for her

Box arrived in perfect condition, however the block that you dig into was already broken and exposing the gems. Poorly made. Wouldn't buy again.

Kids had fun, but very tiny. The box is totally overcompensating.

1.0 out of 5 stars The excavation was fun, but for 10 minutes
Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2017
Style: Rock & Gem DigVerified Purchase
We received this product to give our son on his 10th birthday, it is marked as 12+. To begin with, the goggles included were literally too small for his 8 year old sister, they are appropriately sized for a young child, maybe age 4-5. That was not a big deal, as it is not necessary to wear, but we found that odd. Also, when getting a $20 item, you expect that it will take some time to find the 11 hidden gems. 3 gems were nearly poking out of the corner, 6 gems were in the same exact corner, and my son had excavated all 11 gems within 10 minutes because they were so close to each other. The excavation was fun, but for 10 minutes, it should be priced at about $5. This was poorly made and I would not recommend anyone pay this price for this set. A gem dig should have the 11 gems spread out throughout the block, not all lumped together in a find 1, find them all fashion.

We were using this product as part of a homeschool minecraft STEM class. 12 students total. My daughter had absolutely zero gems. The adults sifted through the dust to be sure. What a heartbreaking disappointment.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing!
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2020
Style: Rock & Gem DigVerified Purchase
My 12 year old daughter has wanted this kit for a long time. She bought it with her own money and was super excited to open it. She was extremely disappointed to see that there are only a few small rocks and this isn't what is depicted in the photo on the box. She wishes that she could get her money back.
