Exact chemical name please.** A: The one I ordered was hard packed sand. Not sure what else was in the sand. Put in a box to dig for the gems because it’s messy **Q: Will three year old enjoy it ?** A: As all children develop at different levels, depending on the individuals abilities and limits this could be suitable. **Q: What you suppost to break it open?** A: There should be tools to use to excavate the pieces by brushing away the sand. If you break it, it will break the fossils! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice gift for a 10-year old boy *by C***L on December 28, 2025* Perfect gift for my grandson.
