A Real Gem

We took a quick field trip in March to the Gem and Mineral show.  It was quite interesting and the kids really enjoyed seeing all the different types of rocks and minerals out there.  Ace, my budding geologist, was in heaven!

 The kids were able to do a gem dig outside for a very good price.  We got all sorts of gems and minerals.

They worked very hard to find them.  We were introduced to the Gem & Mineral clubs around here and are hoping to one day participate as a family.  I love seeing my kids find something they enjoy and pursue it!
