Break Open Real Geodes Science Kit

Featuring six real geodes that all came out of the same mine, Break Open Real Geodes is an educational and fun geology kit for kids. Not only will they be uncovering the crystalized mysteries hiding within each rock formation, but they will be able to burn off some energy while hammering away to break open their own beautiful geodes. Along with fun and education, safety is ensured with the included safety glasses. Unlike other break your own geodes kits on the market, every geode in this earth science kit for kids boasts a diameter between 1.5 and 2 inches. Parents can be confident this geode kit will meet their own expectations upon opening the box, and the six geodes inside are sure to increase children?s already high level of excitement.

Certainly, smacking open the geodes is the most exciting part of this geode kit, but the explanation of how geodes are formed in volcanic lava will keep kids interested in the educational aspects of this geology kit for kids. A detailed introduction provides children with excellent background information about what geodes actually are before explaining the key features of seven amazing kinds of geodes. The manual provides two suggested ways for children to break open their own geodes. For the more skilled young geologists, a hammer and chisel can be used to score a line around the specimen before slowly and carefully cracking it open, or the geode can be placed in a sock and hammered more directly. Once the geodes are open, children can compare and contrast their unique crystal formations before putting them proudly on display.
