My Rockin' Collection! Minerals

Spark a child’s interest in the Earth with this collection of 15 fantastic minerals.  Minerals are the substances that make up the world's rocks.  Each mineral comes with an identification card which includes a photo and fun mineral facts.  Try to identify each mineral using the streak plates, hand magnifier, and identification cards.  If you need a hint, the name of each mineral is beneath the foam padding.  If you need help using the streak plates, the hand magnifier or identifying the minerals, check out the Dig Into Science section of our website for tips on how to use your new mineral kit.
