Your kids won’t know what it to expect till they unearth it; carry out tests; and check with the guide to establish what the assorted samples are! Young curious kids will get to do what archaeologists and paleontologists do by digging out the ten hidden treasures.

The set has fossils, gemstones, a log book, a brush, an identification chart and a tray to display those treasures.  Great for kids who love to learn new things.

If you have a nice backyard and children then a great idea would be to put them both together. The Safari Tent and Tunnel is the best way to do this. The set can be used to make tunnels between multiple tents. The top of the tents are made from transparent material for star gazing.

The tents are colorful with bright animal prints. You can pick up a Tent and Tunnel set for $89 at the National Geographic store (http:/shop.nationalgeographic.com).
