Review: Nice gift to nephew - It was a great gift to my nephew. He loved it.
Review: Excellent Digging Bug Fun! - This was a favorite of my almost 5 year old son. He loves insects or all kinds and arachnids. We were not sure what to expect so important stuff to know: * There is a scorpion painted on the dirt/sand piece you get, this is not an actual scorpion. * If your kids are a little more eager to dig faster they will not destroy a specimen. * I put the block we were digging on a small cookie sheet (jelly roll pan - it has about 1 inch lip around it). This was perfect for containing our mess. * The specimens are real and are enclosed in a clear acrylic like a small rock. Each bug is in its own clear rock. * Specimens are small but you get a magnifying glass with this as well as the digging tool and brush. * Specimens are excellent quality, the size of them is great because my son can easily put these in his pocket and take with him to show his friends when we are out. He is ready to dig another one and I am going to see if I can find one with different specimens for variety but truthfully he would be just as happy with the exact same ones. He loved this! I did too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for kids of all ages
*by K***M on June 4, 2016*

My 3 year old son and I loved doing this activity together. This kit comes with a magnifying glass, plastic digger, a brush, and 3 bugs hidden in a plaster like mold. The bugs themselves are encased in a hard, clear resin. This activity took us about half an hour to do. My son got tired of digging so we took turns, one person digging and the other brushing away the dust. I highly recommend doing this in a place that is easy to clean or you don't mind it getting dirty. This makes a pretty big mess. We did ours outside. The bugs are a good quality. They are bright and look great in the resin. It would be cool if they were bigger, but I understand why they are not. The only thing I didn't like was that all our bugs were found in the same spot. One chunk of dirt popped out and there were 3 bugs underneath. We loved this so much that I bought some for my son to give at birthday parties. I also bought some of the other kits as well. I purchased this product at a discount in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.
