MINI ME GEOLOGY TO LAUNCH NEW LINE OF AFFORDABLE ROCK AND MINERAL KITS FOR CHILDREN IN SPRING 2009

 

Mt. Pleasant, SC (February 2009)  Mini Me Geology will debut a new line of rock and mineral kits for children at Toy Fair 2009 in New York City.  Dedicated to providing quality science products for children, Mini Me Geology has developed a new “Rock Detectives” line of kits for children over the age of six.  The Rock Detectives line includes six kits:  Mineral Mission, Igneous Investigation, Sedimentary Sleuthing, Metamorphic Mystery, Crystal Geometry, and Crystal Experiment.

Each of the Rock Detectives kits contains six or seven large rock or mineral samples, a hand-held magnifier and a CD loaded with information about the samples, as well as printable puzzles, games, activities and experiments.  Children will become true detectives as they use the information on the included CD to determine the identity of each rock or mineral by performing the activities from the CD.  The Rock Detectives kits will retail for under $25.00.

Mini Me Geology will be exhibiting at Toy Fair 2009 in Booth #5646.  Toy Fair 2009 runs from February 15-18, 2009 at The Javits Center in New York City, NY.

Mini Me Geology will also be launching a new deluxe-sized kit in Summer 2009 titled “The Rock Cycle.”  This new kit will be designed to teach children about the rock cycle and can be used by children, parents, teachers and home school families.
