Pop one of these roughly 1-1/4" dia stones into the toe of a sock, smash it with a hammer, and be the first person ever to see your real-as-Nature-makes-it geode!! Ninety percent of them have the familiar beautiful white crystals inside. Formed by volcanic action, they are found all over the world, but ours are from Mexico. There is no way to tell from the outside if they have crystal centers, but we will send you two just to raise your odds, and we haven't had a dud yet in our stores!! Much much more fun and satisfaction than buying one already cracked.

Snap-together building blocks? Those are for cowards. We spit on those. Tough kids use Mini Bricks, monument kits that come with teensy faux-stone textured plastic blocks (1/4” cubes or 1/4” x 1/4” x 1/2", among others), mortar, a mixing tub and a very, very small trowel. The Statue of Liberty has 132 pieces, instructions, and a mounting base. (You don’t build Lady Liberty. She’s in faux-copper, 3” tall; you build the base.) Suitable for kids with small-motor skills and patience. Neatness counts.

Terraria? You decide. Then you pick a 2-1/2” tall plastic egg-shaped terrarium filled with “sprouting mixture” and the seeds for either a eucalyptus plant, an asparagus fern or an insect-eating hooded pitcher plant. Each sprouts in a week or two on a southern or eastern-facing windowsill and then can be moved into a larger terrarium, we’re assured.
