Questions about this toy
Which 7 real stones are hidden inside the plaster block?
The block contains seven genuine specimens: amethyst, citrine, agate, lapis lazuli, white quartz, obsidian, and turquoise. Each stone is identified on the full-colour instruction sheet included in the kit, with facts about its mineral type, colour, and geological origin.
What tools are included in the Buki Rocks and Minerals Dig Kit?
The kit contains a wooden mallet, a chisel, a brush, a sponge, and a magnifying glass, along with the plaster block and a cardboard digging tray. The tray keeps debris contained during excavation, making clean-up considerably easier.
How long does it take to excavate all 7 stones?
Excavation time varies by approach and enthusiasm, but most children aged 8 and over complete the full block in one to two sittings of around 30-45 minutes each. Dampening the plaster block slightly with water, as shown in the instructions, softens the material and speeds up digging.
