The Rock 'n' Gem Surprise from Learning Resources offers a mess-free introduction to sorting, matching, and counting for young learners. This engaging play set allows children to crack open colorful, reusable play geodes and discover the translucent plastic gemstones concealed within.

Using the included play hammer and chisel, kids can repeatedly open each two-piece play geode and reveal the gems inside. These manipulative gems come in eight vibrant colors and four distinct shapes, such as red hearts, purple triangles, and green diamonds, providing ample opportunities for sorting, matching, and counting activities.

Beyond developing essential early learning skills, the Rock 'n' Gem Surprise also introduces young minds to STEM and geology concepts in a clean and hassle-free manner, unlike working with real rocks and geodes. The play geodes effortlessly snap back together, ensuring endless hours of exploration and discovery without the mess.

For convenient storage and quick cleanups, the set includes a drawstring bag to house all the treasures. This makes the Rock 'n' Gem Surprise an excellent choice for toddlers aged 3 and up, as it combines fine motor skill development with crucial cognitive learning in a user-friendly package.
