I’m very proud of myself… I created a new product for our rock company! I’m calling it the Little Kid Rock Kit. We have had lots of people ask about kits for younger kids and we weren’t sure how to do it and had kind of decided it was not possible. Primarily, the problem was getting a nice selection of stones that were too big to swallow and not too expensive, yet pretty and interesting.
So I got to thinking about it and we get wholesale tumbled stones and they offer a extra large sized selection, so I figured out the nice collection that is not too expensive. And I found a pretty velour pouch that they all can fit into. And I’ll have a nice little brochure so that parents can answer the “what’s this” and “what’s that” that will happen over and over! Each of the stones that I picked are different and easy to ID so that it’s easy on us parents.
Jessy was so proud of me! We’ll have them ready first of the year I suppose. I just love the photo of them… they are so pretty! I know little kids will love these special treasure collections!!!

Great idea, those are all very pretty. Can you tell me what the “sparkly greyish” one on the left in the middle is? I actually have one of those but don’t know what it is. Thanks!
Let me know, I will order 3 kits, one for each of my older granddaughters. They gather rocks from my gravel driveway, wash them up and bring them into the house. Not much of a variety, but they love to do it. P~
That sparkley one is called pyrite or fool’s gold… they can really shine like gold, but usually they have a sort of greyish gold sparkle to them. I have seen teeny crystals in rock that could fool you for sure!!!
Oh Pat! Thanks… I think they will be ready pretty soon. The bags aren’t here yet but the rocks are. I still have to make the little ID card, but it’s been just toooo busy for that. I did have fun playing with the rocks though, they are such a nice size and so pretty. I want to put a stash of them in a little crystal bowl and set them out for people to play with! hahah….
