MindWare Dig It Up! Dinosaur eggs excavation kit

Great toy we've given to 2 grandchildren. Can be used over several weeks to build a dinosaur family.

Got this for 5 year old grand daughter for Christmas. She had so much fun with it. It provided lots of entertainment as she chipped away at the eggs. Definitely recommend.

Well packaged, individually with instructions and tool. Easy to easy for kids to prep and excavate. My grandsons loved it but my granddaughters were crazy about them! Great for party favors, Easter baskets, and stocking stuffers!

Bought for my ASD son. He enjoys it! If you don't let it soak the entire 5 minutes, they can chisel it out longer, if you soak it the whole time it's quick and easy to get to the dino. Each egg comes with a new chisel, handy, as it's a mess! This is like clay, we put down a piece of cardboard and throw it away each time, much easier to clean! Fun little activity!

My daughter needed to complete a project and Amazon came to the rescue. Great for the value and good for school use.

My boys loved these. They are ages 4 and 6. This kit comes with a little chizel to break open the eggs, but it was really hard, i even struggled to chip away at the egg. So we ended up taking the eggs outside and used a hammer to break them open. The boys LOVED it and it was really easy with the hammer.

I bought this for my 6 year old who loves dinosaurs and we had a blast chiseling the eggs and finding our dinosaurs! The kit comes with 12 hard clay eggs that you have to soak for about 5 minutes in a cup of water to soften the clay. Each egg is individually wrapped and comes with it's own directions and chisel, so if you are using this for a class or birthday party, everyone has their own materials to use. I also love that each egg has a different dinosaur in it so there are no duplicates within the kit and the element of surprise is so much fun!Once you have soaked the egg, use the chisel to chip apart and scoop the clay. After a few minutes, you get a small dinosaur about an inch or two tall. She likes to play with hers in the tub. These are kind of expensive, but they are a lot of fun and educational because the kit comes with a pamphlet that tells facts about each dinosaur and you can also practice classifying them by plant or meat eater, two legged or four legged, etc. There is so much to do with these! There are other kits as well such as sea life and wild animals that I plan to purchase.

I bought this gift for my niece and nephews for Christmas (ages 2-6) and it was a big hit! I had to help the younger ones a lot, but they really enjoyed digging out their dinosaur. It was a unique gift that I didn't have to worry about someone else duplicating. I purchased a LEGO dinosaur along with these eggs and it was a great combo.Fair warning: this is a very messy project so be prepared to protect your interior surfaces as well as clothing. The "egg", once wet, is like a thick wet clay and makes a mess similar to peanut butter.
