National Geographic Gemstone Advent Calendar

Count down to Christmas one gemstone at a time. Behind each of the 24 numbered windows sits a genuine polished gemstone, from rose quartz and tiger's eye to pyrite and agate, so every December morning brings a small discovery. A learning guide explains each specimen, and the final day adds a hands-on dig kit activity, making this a calendar that teaches as well as delights.

What to know about this National Geographic Gemstone Advent Calendar

Each window holds one polished gemstone, with a chart and learning guide to help children identify what they have found. The last window holds a complete dig kit, and a storage bag plus five jewellery settings are included for keeping and showing off favourite specimens. The stones are small, so the calendar is best for children aged 8 and up, and younger children should be supervised because of the small parts.

Pros

  • 24 genuine polished gemstones to collect, one behind each window
  • A complete dig kit on the final day adds hands-on fun
  • Learning guide and specimen chart turn each reveal into a geology lesson
  • Storage bag and jewellery settings included for keeping and displaying favourites

Cons

  • Only the final day includes the dig kit, so most days bring a single stone and nothing to make or do with it.
