Product Description
Crack open a colorful gem surprise! Little ones get a no-mess introduction to sorting, matching, and counting with the play geodes and gems of Rock 'n' Gem Surprise from Learning Resources. Using the included play hammer and chisel, kids can crack open each reusable play geode and discover the translucent plastic gemstones inside. Gems double as manipulatives, and come in eight different colors and four different shapes - you might find a red heart, a purple triangle, a green diamond, or more fun combinations. In addition to helping kids learn early sorting, matching, and counting skills, Rock 'n' Gem Surprise also introduces kids to early STEM and geology concepts without the messy clean-up associated with real rocks and geodes. Each of the set's two-piece play geodes pops apart and snaps back together for endless learning fun - crack 'em open again and again! Rock 'n' Gem Surprise also comes with a storage bag for fast and simple clean-up.

The one thing she has a hard time with is closing the rocks, they have to be lined up right for them to close.
Great storage bag and the box it came in is very gift able and eye catching for a kid. Great for sorting and learning colors and shapes.
Worth the price and happy that I bought them for her.
The only reason I gave it 4 stars has nothing to do with the toy it self, but Amazon. I paid full price for a new toy, and got a used toy with opened box and missing instructions, and the returned sticker from Kohl's.
I bought this set as a Christmas gift so it has not yet been played with, but I already know my (almost) 4 year old is going to have a blast with it! There are so many ways we'll be able to play with this, while educating him. Since he is not going to preschool, at-home education is very important to us, and fun props are always welcome! Every piece in this set is large and chunky, making it easy for hands of all sizes to manipulate the pieces, however, using the pick to open the geodes helps with fine motor skills. Each gem's color matches the inside of a geode so it's great for color matching. Could work as a memory/matching game, and could work for teaching about actual geodes, too! So much potential for learning, in such a fun way! Everything seems to be made extremely well, the colors are perfect and vibrant, and the little bag for storage is very much appreciated! Of all the Christmas presents we've bought this year, this one has got to be my favorite.

Jahre alten Bub verschenkt. Das aufschlagen der Steine war schnell gelernt und die Freude an den schönen bunten Edelsteine war groß. Auch der 5 Jahre alte Bruder war hin und weg. Schönes Spiel.
Les llama mucho la atención porque está muy bien hecho y la mecánica de tener que abrir las gemas y hacerlo con el cincel y el martillo les encanta. Muy pronto se les ocurre meter otras cosas y la verdad es que se entretienen un buen rato creando sus propias aventuras. El hecho de que puedas meter otras cosas también hace que les sorprenda cuando, por ejemplo, juegan con otra persona o niño y no saben qué se van a esperar.
La calidad del juego es muy buena, no tiene ningún peligro para la edad recomendada y tampoco para menores de dicha edad. La edad más adecuada para usarlo es entorno a los 3 años, que es cuando puedes trabajar más los conceptos y habilidades que he comentado pero, debido al potencial que puede tener el juego a la hora de crear historias o de rellenar las gemas de cualquier cosa, hace que también sea adecuado para niños más mayores.
Lo recomiendo porque es un juguete de calidad, que entretiene bastante, sirve para varias edades y da pie a trabajar con ellos algún aspecto educativo. Me ha sorprendido gratamente porque al principio me parecía más simple de lo que es. Además, trae una bolsa que hace que lo puedas llevar a cualquier sitio o guardarlo en casa sin que ocupe mucho espacio.

Conforme à la description,
La prise en main pour un petit est top, de bonne qualité et on peut faire différents jeux ; les formes, les couleurs, et le petit plus de ce jeu, c'est l'enfant qui découvre et redécouvre ce qui est caché dedans
Rien à redire !
