Unusual gift idea and worth it I think......
Nicely packaged and came quicker than expected. The clear plastic box measures 7.5 cm x 5 cm x 3 cms and contains alot of quite small pieces. Many in mine were sharks teeth which are of interest to him at the moment. There was a large sharks tooth (about 2 cms long) plus lots of what looked like starfish. I guess someone scoops a load of fossils in as about 1/4 was a crumbly dust. I sorted those out and discarded as they were too small to be of interest. I resealed the box for my son as he is 4 and would just spread the lot out on the rugs. You get an informative little book with it and as a whole I think it is a nice present for someone a bit older than four. However I could not think where I could get one locally so the internet came up trumps. I will try and upload an image of what you get. The little pile to the side is what I discarded.

Brilliant kit with a very informative booklet
Brilliant kit. My 5yr old is so delighted she has a box packed full of precious fossils. You really do get lots of fossils, the box is full to the brim, and there is a fab little guide with it so the child can identify what they have in their box and how old it is. I think this would be a fabulous gift for any child from 4 to teens.

Great, but not a full selection.
These are indeed, mostly teeth, but my 5 year-old loved the fossils and the book. I bought it with and Usborne book about fossils and he preferred this little book. I think it is perfect for his age. Unfortunately there was not a single nautiloid included, which is why I have to give it 4 stars. It says on the box that it may not be included, but it is difficult to tell a child why something pictured is not on the box.

Great book and some tiny fossils.
Great gift for my granddaughter who is dinosaur/fossil mad. She looked carefully at the fossils with a magnifying glass 🔍 and is making her play house into a museum for her friends to visit!!!!

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY
Really disappointed in this item, delivery was fast but the item was wrapped in bubble wrap and not in a box as I would of expected, it is ridiculously small both the book and the box of fossils if you can call them that. As you can see on the pics above there are a few so called fossils which could maybe represent one but the rest is just broken smashed up crappy bits of stone or shell. I bought this as a gift but it has gone straight in the bin as I wouldn’t embarrass myself giving it as a gift. The child would of been disappointed and I think it would of put him off his love of fossil and gem hunting, he would of found more interesting finds in his garden. A total waste of money.

Not great value for money.
The book is TINY! More like a pamphlet than a book. It does have useful info but very basic & what annoyed me the most was that the same ‘book’ is for sale in the actual fossil gift shop in Charmouth for £1.50! The fossil box is a nice addition with a selection of fossils, but again, you can buy the whole box in Charmouth for about £5 altogether. Or better still, find them on the beach for free! If you are visiting the Jurassic Coast, save your money for a hammer & chisel, and buy direct from the shop.

My 7 year old Godson loved this present and the little book that Dame with it was really infomative. The box contained teeth and fossils which he proudly showed off to us all. I was sent emails to keep me updated of delivery, good service and a great product.

Bought for my 4 year old grandson. Wanted to keep for myself. Some of the fossils are too small and or sharp for little kids, so I happily kept those. Great set. Perhaps would be better suited for 9 up. Still, reall great deal on wonderful and educational fossil set.

Kids loved looking at the fossils. Some pieces are actually good specimens.

Was disappointed with size of this item, it is quite small. I didn't think to look at dimensions, this was my fault. I drew the name of a 9 year old boy for a Christmas giving tree. He also requested a magnifying glass..the one I ordered was a 4.5 star really nice one so I felt better but was still embarrassed to bring such a small gift. I actually made up another box and included some fossils that my husband collected. The booklet was little as well. I should have researched this better.

It's a little smaller than I thought it should be for the price. The book is tiny but I think my grandson will like it. He'll probably lose the small parts pretty quickly though. I bought him a magnifying glass for Christmas and thought he would like to have some fossils to look at. Overall, I like it.

Book was good. The container is super small. About 3 inches and has stuffing it. Almost all shark teeth.
