Welcome to today’s giveaway–sponsored by The World’s Most Fascinating Rock Collection:
From Kelli of The World’s Most Fascinating Rock Collection:
“Maybe you find rocks in your wash every time you do laundry. Maybe you can’t walk through a parking lot without your child stooping to study the scattered pebbles at your feet. Maybe you have a child who is fascinated by rocks.
Lucky you! You might not know it, but rock collecting is a great base for studying many earth science principles in a concrete and hands-on way.
The World’s Most Fascinating Rock Collection uses children’s natural fascination with rocks as a foundation on which to develop a deeper understanding of earth science principles.
Each specimen represents a specific educational principle. For example pumice, fascinating for its ability to float, serves as the grounding element in a lesson on water displacement and floatation. Some other covered topics include: crystallization, atoms, the rock cycle, lapidary, magnetism, space rocks, volcanic processes and fossilization.
Because children SO love to receive mail, the collection is delivered as a monthly subscription to keep excitement for learning fresh!
However, this collection differs from the typical subscription box because each delivery is one installment in a carefully planned rock and mineral collection designed to increase your child’s understanding of rock-related science in a fun and engaging way.”
“Each monthly package includes:
- Featured Rock or Mineral Specimen (Tektites, Fossils, Geodes, and others)
- Stackable Collection Container that grows each month
- Fun and Fascinating Information Card packed with educational material and illustrations
- Instructions for a Hands-On Activity that illustrates the lesson (experiments, recipes, crafts, and more)
- Paper Activity that reinforces the material (crosswords, mazes, origami, etc.)
- Photo Identification and “Rock Humor” Stickers
In addition to the monthly collection, you can add-on a Collector’s Box which includes:
- Carrying Box to contain the entire collection including information cards
- Personalizable Label
- Decorative sticker (the box is a great place to display all the collection stickers!)
- Welcome Card
- Kid-friendly Magnifying Glass
- “Geo” character rock (the collection’s playful mascot)
If you prefer to teach your rock science as a unit, there is a Teacher’s Pack available. The Teacher’s Pack is the entire collection packaged in the Collector’s Box and delivered in one shipment.”

What a great giveaway!!! Thank you ! My kids are 13, 11, and 8. My 11 year old, especially, always has rocks in his pocket- he would LOVE this!!!
Christy
My kids are 13, 8 and 8 (yes, twins!)
They pick up rocks everywhere we go. I do find rocks in their pockets and of course in mine. They find special rocks as a gift to me so often my pockets are more full of rocks than theirs. We’ve be working on a “heart shaped” rock collection. Thanks for the chance! Sounds like an amazing gift.
Erica
My kids are 4 & 6 — yes, we find rocks in pockets, in the car, on the floor, in jars — we paint rocks, collect rocks, sort rocks. They are a favorite toy around here!
Amber DeGrace
My kids are ages 4 and 6. I don’t find rocks in their pockets but I have a largish collection in my purse that they’ve given me with instructions to “keep this magic stone in your purse, Mama”. Of course I keep every single one. 🙂

My boys are 6, 5, and 1. The 5 year old loves interesting rocks, and tries to bring a new one home every hike we go on. Once the rock was so big and heavy I didn’t think he could carry it back to the car, but he did–3 miles!

Rocks, rocks, rocks. My big boy, almost 7, has been a collector since he could walk. My little boy, 3.5, is following in his footsteps. Better than rocks in pockets, is rocks in washing machine AND dryer – all that friction adds a nice, downy softness to my clean laundry! 😛

Kayra
My kids are 13, 8, 8. Before we homeschooled, they attended private school and they brought home rocks every day for their “collection”. No rock was too ugly to spark their interest. Even now, if a rock catches their eye, they are going to bring it home.

Hello! My children are ages 13,11,9,6! All of my children love collecting things ! We just recently moved and as we are opening boxes we find ziplock bags of rocks! No wonder these boxes are so heavy! If I attempt to remove or size down their “collections” it’s as if I’m stealing there precious treasures! So, they stay in the boxes. My 9yr old daughter is fascinated just by the rocks in our driveway. She seems to see some unique characteristic in each one finding them hard to set aside. This prize would be such a blessing in my household! Thanks for posting such great articles !
Tanya Moorehead
Finding rocks in pockets and left in the dryer has always been an issue.My children have a rock collection outside that they have found all over the yard and other places and brought them back.Would love a chance to try this resource.My son is 9 and my daughter is 6 years old.Thanks so much!

My children are 7, 5 and 4. We live in the desert southwest and most definitely find rocks in pockets, in “collections” (especially in the oldest’s room) a lot! Sometimes I wish we could just leave them in the, already rock, yard!

Rocks in pockets, bowls, jars, baggies, displayed on bedroom shelves….we always have rocks. We had moved 3 times in one year and the rocks were packed carefully and brought along by my youngest daughter. I have rocks from everyplace we have lived 🙂 my children are 8, 10, 16 and 2 grown ages 21 and 23.

Megan
What a fantastic product!!! My kids are 9, 5, and 3. Like many others, we have rocks everywhere! Rocks in pockets, backpacks, the cup holders and floor of my car, the bottom of laundry baskets, shelves lined with cups and bowls and baskets of rocks; I have had a kid take off a sock while hiking to carry more rocks! You really wouldn’t think I would want to pay to have more rocks delivered to my house, but I do!
Jennifer Milligan
Hi! My 6 year old daughter has been collecting rocks most of her life! One of her favorite things is to gather up and buy a bag of colored rocks that they sell at gift shops, like Shady Maple in PA, and put them in her little painted treasure box. Thanks for sharing this offer! It’s a great idea!
Tamara
Yes, I have found rocks in their pockets (and in the washing machine). Even though they are now 13 and 15, just yesterday I was trying to get them to move a pile of their “special” rocks off the front porch!

I pull rocks out of our 8-year-old daughter’s pockets all the time when I’m doing laundry! Sometimes I miss one until I hear the telltale “clunk” in the dryer. She had the best time last summer in Maine collecting beautiful specimens for her collection. She would adore receiving rocks in the mail.

Good morning! Wonderful giveaway here! My 9-year old daughter and 7-year old son are both enamored with rocks. We just got back from a rock store putting this weekend and were shocked at the prices of rocks. Oh, how I took for granted my childhood bowl of polished wonders! We regularly hike and collect special rocks from the various places we go. We have found great quartz, granite, mica, and petrified wood just in our rock beds around the house. Plus, we moved to a new state a year ago which has allowed us to compare what we found at our last home and now here. It’s a fascination, and I wish I could say it’s all my kids’, but really I never grew out of it myself. And oh – I find the rocks in coat pockets, pants pockets, backpacks from school (playground finds!), laundry basket, post-traumatic washing in the machine, on the kitchen counter, in one of several bags or containers my daughter uses to hoard (collect) treasures, no joke – in my kids’ sheets as they fall asleep with them in their hands, and rarely (but it happens when the planets align) in the bowls on their dressers that they are supposed to be in! I can’t get mad though, or I’d have to erase my childhood. In truth, I do love that they have find such wonder and interest in rocks. They hold many secrets to our planet’s history and are a terrific gateway into those sciences and histories. Would truly love to win this supply of rocks so that the learning continues with more tangible pieces. Thank you for sponsoring and supplying such a great give-away!

OOh my goodness Rocks OH Rocks! My children are 9. 7. 6. and 4 …Yes I find rocks in the washer & around the house always!.
My children (and me included) adore rocks. I have fond memories as a little girl collecting rocks everywhere I went, then hoarding them under my bed! Every walk my children & I go on, we are bound to have a good pile of rocks by the time we get back home. Rocks are grounding, another connection we have to the amazing gifts of the earth! So happy to find this post! 🙂

I have a 7, a 5 and an almost 3, whose collective rocks I have found in their pockets, my pockets, their socks, hats and backpacks, the baby’s diaper bag and even carseat. They are not discerning – rocks come home from every walk we take, from parking lots, from displaced decorative gravel, mountains from beach vacations – they will buy shiny polished rocks if these are the only ones around to find. There is a coding system for the rocks based on their relative shininess / pointiness / resemblance to a potato, that determines whether they will be placed in a pyramid of rocks in the yard, an aquarium, the rock polisher or one of the many jars, drawers, baskets and boxes dedicated to the care and maintenance of rocks. The latest find was so heavy that my oldest could barely pick it up – it is still riding around on the floorboards of the car (see how flat is?), with numerous small kin keeping it company in the cupholders. On second thought, we probably don’t need any more rocks…

My boys are 3 and 6. They both love rock collecting! There is not a shelf, or window ledge, or toy basket in our home that is not occupied by rocks, pebbles, or crystals. My older son especially loves them, and has a large collection gathered from anywhere and everywhere we go. Many of his girfts are cool rocks, because family members know how much he loves them!

I have four boys ages 10. 13, 17 and an autistic 20 year old. My youngest is the one who would love this, although my 13 year old regularly collects rocks, too. My 10 year old however asked for rocks for Christmas!

We all LOVE rocks at our house! We call rocks, ‘gifts from God’ My son is 12 and is a rock collector! His pockets have held some of his greatest treasures and it is such a joy to reach inside a pocket while doing laundry and find one of these gifts. A few years back he started collecting heart shaped rocks to display inside on a window shelf.
May God bless you as you continue to serve Him,

10 and 6. So, so many times have I found rocks in their pockets, in the washer, in the car, and in the dresser drawers. Unfortunately, living where we do, the rocks are most often chunks of asphalt rather than actual rocks. Most of our “good rocks” have come from grand dad’s house in Indiana, or as purchases from the gift shop at our science museum. We’d love to have more rocks to look at!
wendy
My kids are 6 and 8. My 6 year old loves rocks but my 8 year old went through a 2 year phase when he always carried rocks with him. Always.

I have a 4 and 1 year old. Not only do I find rocks in their pockets, but also in the bathroom, on shelves, in bedroom rugs, dresser drawers, and on kichen counters. In the case of my one year old, I constantly find them in her mouth…
Jessa

My kids are 11, 5 and 7 and we have a gravel driveway… suffice it to say we have so many collections of “special” rocks from pockets I don’t know what to do with them all! Truth be told I am a bit of a rockhound too, but I leave the driveway gravel where it is and bring home special rocks from family outings instead.

We have a 7 year old daughter and 2 yr old son. Our daughter has been collecting rocks for as long as we can remember and our son seems to be following suit. I have a special container in the laundry room to collect all the precious stones that have a way of making it into the washing machine.

My children are 7, 5, and 3. They are all avid rock lovers and I have found rocks in each of their pockets… and in jewelry boxes, by their beds, in buckets, in bags. In fact, just in the last week there have been squabbles over “who’s rock is who’s” as they’ve spent hours looking for rocks in our yard. I am also the lucky recipient of many of their favorite rocks that they find in the yard! 🙂

Kids are 6, 3 and NB. Our 6 year old daughter is passionate about rocks. Her hands and pockets are nearly always carrying rocks. Her precious “Rock Collection” is on our front porch and she is always looking to add to it. She has researched how rocks are formed and loves to tell us the possible history of the rocks she finds. I have no idea where this fascination came from but she is a rock fan! We would so love to win this giveaway! The program is beyond our finances but is one of my dreams for her!

My twin boys are 8 yo. We have a nature table with some “special rocks” on them. But the boys each have a drawer in their dresser in their rooms FULL of rocks. At one point in their collecting, they even gathered hands full of gravel! Now that they play Minecraft they are actually learning about some of the rocks and ores like Obsidian. (I really need to clean out those drawers!)

Joanna
My daughter is 3.5 and always, always has to stop to pick up rocks. I have found rocks in her pockets, car seat, floor of the car, in her play cooking pots, and arranged different ways on her bedroom floor. I think it’s safe to say she likes rocks! 🙂

We are currently living on a sailboat in Florida and have sailed through the Bahamas so we collect shells, pretty pieces of smooth glass, sand dollars and rocks. My three year old doesn’t leave the boat without something like that in his hand. My seven and nine year olds have started a collection already, that they keep in a special box in their cabin.

I have a 9, 6 and 2 year old. We all like to spy cool rocks but my son gets as many as he can carry, in his pockets, stoller compartment, whatever is handy. There is a love there, the lava rocks in the library’s landscaping were often quietly pocketed as well!

Nature+ Science+ Education+ Fun– can’t think of anything better for my 6 yr old!!
My son loves rocks- I have noticed his preference for the shinier, translucent type of rocks. He collects them as he finds them and then goes on to make stories about how these rocks are magical and can grant wishes, solve problems and do almost anything for him. Beauty 🙂
Stephanie
My kids are 7 and 9, and we just finished a 6 week study on rocks and geology. This is our first year homeschooling, and we started with rocks for science because this is one of their favorite pastimes. I can’t even count how many times I have found rocks in their pockets, not to mention all over the house. The World’s Most Fascinating Rock Collection would be such a fun way to continue discussions about the things we have already learned!
Paula
Finding rocks in pockets you say? Oh yes!! And in all sorts of other places. My children are 11, 9, and 6. All sorts of fun and exploring with rocks would be even more exciting with this collection. Thank You for bringing it to my attention.

I decided to stop fighting it, and now have a lovely glass bowl in my living room where there favourite (carefully washed, dried, and inspected to make sure it is not harbouring six-legged life forms) specimens can be displayed.

What a great idea this is! I have a 6yo, a 5yo and a 2yo, but it’s the 2yo who is especially fascinated by rocks. I have found rocks in all of their pockets. And when we get in the minivan, the 2yo often points out, “I have some rocks in here if you need one.” 🙂

My daughters are 7 and 4, and oh boy have I ever found rocks in my 4 year-old’s pockets! This girl is rock crazy and collects them everywhere we go. For Christmas last year, her sister gave her a rock container for storing them. So cute!

My kids that are still at home are 13, 10, and 5. Not only have I found rocks in their pockets, I have found them in their book bags, purses, boxes stashed in their rooms, and toy boxes. They had them all over the back deck and randomly stuck in my houseplants as well. Everywhere we go, my kids are looking at and picking up rocks. 🙂
Jill
My sons are 4, 6, and 8. We find rocks everywhere!
Danielle C
My kiddos are 7, 5, 3, and 5 months… the only child’s pocket that I haven’t found rocks in is the babies, but it will only be a matter of time. 🙂
Keri
My boys are 11, 10, 7 and 3. I often have to stop the washer or dryer to fish out hidden rocks that make themselves know when the tumbling starts.
Lisa
my daughter is 10, and especially loves seaside stones. when we go for a hike, we remind ourselves aloud to leave things as we found them, otherwise each kind of rock would come home with us. it is not uncommon for me to find rocks in my handbag, stashed by my child on a pocketless (or pocket brimful) outing.

Kathy LaPan
My daughter is 11, and since she could walk I’ve found rocks in her pockets. And the bottom of my washer. And in her shoes. On her shelves. In her bag. In my van. On the coffee table. In ziplocks. Hidden under the bed. As gifts at every holiday.
She’s considering being a geologist.
Ann
My kids are 16,12, an 10. Yes I find rocks in their pockets and mine. I like looking for unusual rocks myself.

I have three BOYS (5yrs,3yrs, and 6 months) so needless to say, I have found many rocks in their pockets, shoes, hats, and gloves. I even have found rocks in their underwear once! I love my boys! Ever since my oldest was big enough to pick them up, we have had rocks everywhere! And because we homeschool, they love getting to study cool new rocks all the time!
I also already like simple homeschool on FB.

My children are 6, 4 and 1. I love this idea, I sometimes find rocks in their pockets and recently we have become interested in geology and rocks thanks to Magic School Bus books and a little friend of ours who is working on digging a huge hole in his backyard. We would love to win and would learn a lot!

Alexis
Yes, yes so many rocks. My 5 year old and I just read ‘Little House in the Big Woods’ and we laughed and laughed about how Laura’s pocket ripped out when she collected too many rocks because that had just happened to my little girl and her favorite dress pockets too.
Carol

Oh my goodness! My son would go CRAZY if he won this! He looooves rocks so much and loves to share his finds with everyone (which is why I know that he’d also love to share this kit with anyone who would like to listen to him as well!)… Rocks in pockets (and other nature finds too) are so common that when I DON’T find them, I start to worry about where they are and if I’ll step on it in the dark sometime! Thanks for the chance!

And I’m not trying to leave extra posts but I see that I forgot to mention my kids’ ages in my excitement- they are 5 and 7. Thanks!
Patricia
My boys are 6, 4, 2, and 8 months. I have only found rocks in pockets a few times so far, but considering how much time they spend picking up, inspecting, and carrying them around, it is only a matter of time.
They may take after me. I collected rocks when I was younger. My parents actually tossed out my collection! 🙁
Patricia

My kids are almost-2 and 3 and I am just getting into the stage now where I’m pulling rocks (and other things) out of their pockets before I do the laundry!
Amy
The kiddos are 5, 7, 8, and 9. Rocks in the pockets are a regular thing like with any kid. My 7-year-old is particularly attached to rocks because his name is Micah so he feels a special bond with them. 🙂

My kids are 15, 13 and 9, and not only have I found rocks in their pockets, I have found them in their bedroom closets, in the bathroom, all over the kitchen table, and on the front porch where, surrounded by hammers and safety glasses, they crack them open to see what’s inside and leave the detritus for us all to trip over. We would love this giveaway!

My girls are 3 and 6 and love collecting things in nature- especially rocks. We’ve started a rock and mineral collection that they enjoy.
