MINI ME GEOLOGY LAUNCHES NEW LINE OF AFFORDABLE ROCK AND MINERAL KITS FOR CHILDREN

Mt. Pleasant, SC (October 2009) Mini Me Geology has launched a new line of six affordable rock and mineral kits for elementary-aged children. 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. This unique new line includes Mineral Mission, Igneous Investigation, Sedimentary Sleuthing, Metamorphic Mystery, Crystal Geometry, and Crystal Experiment.

The Rock Detectives kits contains six or seven large mineral or rock samples, a hand-held magnifier and a CD loaded with 30 pages of information about the samples, as well as printable puzzles, games, coloring pages, 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 retail for $19.99 and are available at the company website, www.MiniMeGeology.com.
