Thames and Kosmos Classic Science Archaeology: Pyramid Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this archaeology kit for my daughter, who teaches fourth grade, and my grandsons, who are seven and nine years old. They loved it. It was educational, fun, and the boys loved helping Mom carefully excavate the inside of the pyramid. I don't believe my grandsons could have read the instructions and completed the tasks alone, but it was a great learning experience for all of them and a wonderful activity for the family.

Open the sarcophagus and you will discover a model mummy preserved within. As you uncover the artifacts in the pyramid, you will learn about archaeological science, including excavation, conservation, dating, and remote sensing.

DIG & DISCOVER: Ancient Coins Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great product. Kristal Educational does a fantastic job in teaching archaeology, palentology, astronomy, or geology through a toy.
This toy also teaches patience and perseverance. Sure, there is a mess issue, but it can be easily contained by simply using newsaper, a little attentiveness, and a "project area".
Note: This is a "project" toy. It does take some time to complete. I would not recommend it to any child that has a low attention level.
My daughter received the Wooly Mammoth Dig Kit as a gift and she enjoyed it immensely. She still proudly displays it today.
