This is great for a 6 year old (and her mom!)
I bought this for my homeschooled 6 year-old to go with our geology unit and we spent about an hour cutting and scraping and have gotten out 11 crystals, so far and have only done about 3/4 of it! They are big and beautiful! Amethysts, rose quartz, clear quartz, dolomite, agate and more are included. The people that are saying it’s too hard to get out, must not be aggressive enough with it! We found that the hammer is useless, but the knife is much more effective. We took turns scraping and chiseling, because it can definitely wear you out! You can also drop it on a hard floor to loosen the big chunks. My arms are sore, but it really helped get my stress out and my daughter enjoyed looking up each crystal on the information card that was included before putting them in the bag. We may end up getting another one of these when we finish this one!

This item is very engaging
My grandsons (5 & 7) loved digging for their crystals! The kit was completed with identification information, display card & the pouch ...very complete, unlike another I purchased previously. Great product!
Only reason I did not give it a 5 was there were not goggles included in this one (used swim goggles)
It was a very messy project, but that was not unexpected!

My four year old LOVES this!
We've spent hours on it so far and have just excavates one stone so far but she absolutely loves it. We're practicing patience in addition to learning about stones.
*Hint* for us scraping tends to be much faster than hitting with the little hammer. And even then it is time consuming, but sometimes that's GOOD!

Kept a 6yo entertained
The tools weren't the greatest and it took a real hammer and chisel to actually break through the outer material. Under Dad's guidance we got all of the crystals and stones out.

My son loved this!
My son picked this out as a quarantine project. He spent about two hours excavating the stones, and he loved it! The little pouch was nice to keep all his stones together. A nice little rainy day project!

Not that exciting
It wasn’t as exciting for my 10 year old as she had hoped.

Would absolutely get this again!
This was so fun! I was expecting maybe 3 to 5 stones to be in here, but there were 10! All different colors and sizes. He had so much fun finding them! Will purchase again!

Grandson loved it!
My 7 year old grandson loves collecting rocks and he really enjoyed “discovering” the rocks in this kit.
