Fun for future gem hunters
I purchased this for my 5 year old daughter who is into these types of kits. She loved the kids googles and even wore them in the shower. The gem hunting tools are made of wood which means they splinter when hitting with the hammer. The "rock" is hard clay which requires the gem hunter to chip away to find the gems. After about 45 min, my daughter was ready to give up after finding only 10 of 20 gems. We then soaked the "rock" in hot water to make it softer. She was then able to find the remaining gems with minimal effort. This step is VERY MESSY, so be prepared to have brown clay everywhere. Best if done at a bathroom or kitchen sink (or outside).

Very disappointing. No gems
Good to keep occupied but sadly no gems found. Spent lots of time pounding it to dust. Very disappointing. Real ripoff.

My disappointment is immeasurable&my day is ruined
This was extremely disappointing, I would give it 0 stars if I could. The packaging makes the gems and the block look way bigger than they actually are. All of the gems were the size of a dime if not smaller. Absolutely not worth the price and I wouldn’t buy again nor would I recommend this to anyone. I wish I could get my money back

No Gems
We took this kit as a birthday present for our son. He experienced great disappointment as he broke whole block down into small pieces and there was not even one small gem.

This product advertised 11 gems and we got 0...
My daughter was chipping away at the block only to find that there were no gems. We soaked some pieces in water to see if some would appear, but still nothing. Waste of money.

The Gem Digging kit kept my son busy for several days! He wouldn’t stop until he found all of the gems. As part of my son’s activity, he had to research each gem and write 5 interesting facts about each gem. Great activity!
