Cute set! My son loves it

It is a fun kit and when I initially had issues with the order my concern was handled with great customer service and very promptly.

Super cool for the kids!

This kit was nice. I wished it had bigger raw stones, then polished, but it was nice.

Lots of items very nice

Okay, confession time. I am almost forty-one years old, yet I ordered this kit for myself, not for a kid. I love rocks and crystals and minerals, not for healing, but just because they are fascinating and beautiful. I didn't have much before, so I decided to get what would sort of be a starter kit for myself. I was vacillating among this kit and a couple of others on Amazon.Here's what I got:1. A set of tumbled stones of varying sizes, pictured in the oval dish with the red mechanical pencil for scale.2. A set of most of the same stones in rough form, pictured in the rectangular dish.3. A good-sized bag with a mix of smaller tumbled stones. They came all mixed together, but I have a penchant for sorting, so I have sorted all of mine out into little baggies.4. A set of fossils, in the plastic box.5. A "special" set of pumice, pyrite, and desert rose.6. A big plastic identification mat (not pictured)*Note--there was not any plain gravel/limestone filler. All of the stones were good for keeping.The description uses the words "activity kit," but there aren't really activities included. I guess the activity part is blowing up the Internet like I did, trying to identify some of the stones that aren't on the mat. All of the larger ones were, but in the tumbled mix of smaller stones there were lots that weren't. I still have a couple pieces of "confusionite."I did run into one oddity: a few of the small stones had a round shape, almost like a marble cut in half. It's almost like they're tiny game pieces.Really I have only one disappointment: the desert rose. It is in the photo with the three stones. I was expecting a small but entire crystal structure, but it actually looks like there was a desert rose that was sawed into multiple pieces and I got one of the pieces. In fact, it has a couple of smooth flat sides where it was cut. You can't really get a sense of the structure and shape at all. Some of the other rough stones have flat sides, too, as though they were cut from larger chunks, but those aren't as bothersome as the desert rose.So it's a great set. If all of the sets are as good as the one I got, the purchaser should be well satisfied.

I got it because the description stated alot of the rocks and gems my son liked and it was mostly stones. Not even a tigers eye.

My kids really loved this kit and magnifying glass included. No missing pieces. Great value for the money spent. Hard rocks and stones. Crystals included. Beautiful, large variety of stones and minerals, even fossils. Great for homeschooling lesson.
