Short lived entertainment
My 4 year old was super excited to start digging for the hidden treasure and Dino bones. The Dino sand was pretty sticky and the tool that was provided was flimsy and useless to dig through the very thick sand. It isn't like traditional sticky play sand, there are little seeds and and rough grains and it's all held together with a sticky glue type substance.

Tons of fun
My son loved digging through the sand and pulling out the bones and assembling the dinosaur. Then he loved playing with the sand after. Good little kit.

Short term fun!
The Dino discovery egg was such a fun toy. My kid was very interested at the beginning. However, once he was able to break into the egg the small surprises on the inside only kept his attention for a short time. For the price I don't know if I would purchase again. For a dinosaur lover however, it could be more interesting.

Okay for a while
Its good and durable for older children . Would have hoped that the sand be alittle more flexible instead of it being sticky as if it were slime .

Just ok
My boys (7 and 9) were excited when they first opened it but they only played with it for a few minutes before they quickly got bored. It's very small and the sand doesn't stay in the container.

Awesome learning toy!
Our son loved playing with the Dino Discovery Dig. We did find the Dino Dirt was hard to dig through with the plastic shovel that came included and had to use a metal spoon. Building the dinosaur was a little tough for my 4 year old however, once we built it for him he loved playing with it.

Great idea, poor design
The product definitely has some pros, it's fun, interactive and a great way to keep your kids busy.
The cons include terrible sand. It's stucky, gooey and STICKS TO EVERYTHING!! That includes clothes, tables, fingers, carpet, shoes. Not kidding this was gross and such a nuisance. I would change the "sand" because that is going to cause so many issues with parents of yo...

I thought it would be fun
I thiught it would be fun, however my little ine didn't seem very interested. They actually threw it, seemed annoyed by it and we and played with the tree out front. I cannot truly rate or recommend one way or the other. Also. I'm glad we had the chance to try it for free because it would have sucked paying for something they didn't give one chance to.

My Kids Had Fun!
My kids had a lot of fun with this product! My toddlers definitely found it very engaging, and my 11 year old even joined in on the fun.
The only issues I found with the product is the sand/dirt material itself. It's very sticky and has big chunks of "rock" or material and it can get STUCK in fabrics, like clothing and even the carpet. But it is to be expected with a p...

It was a hit with my three year old, and myself!
I gave the Educational Insights GeoSafari Jr. Dino Digs Triceratops to my three year old daughter, Toni, and she absolutely loved it! She was totally enthralled for at least 45 minutes, and that's her way of showing me she really likes something. I really thought that the volcano design of the whole piece is really cool, especially because Toni loves "'canos". The fossi...

Boys had Fun
While my boys stayed engaged for quite a it with this product ( which is always plus :-)) There were defiantly things about it that i found a bit strange. I thought they would get to dig to find the dinosaur bones and Gem. but it was all just in a bag. I think the product could be a tad larger to be able to store the dino bones and "Sand" for future fun. but my boys did...

Do not recommend
Overall was not impressed with this toy. It doesn't stay together and it's overall very boring for any child. I would not buy this in the store.

Digging the Dino Dig
It is very well made and easy to understand even for younger children. My son had a great time looking for all the different pieces. It helped keep him busy on a rainy afternoon.

Lots of fun
My son absolutely loved this! He's obsessed with dinosaurs so was over the moon about getting this. Definitely something for both parents and child to do together.

Such a fun toy
My daughter LOVED this. She still plays with the sand portion. The dino is a bit flimsy but she loves "him" none the less. It kept her busy for hours and she still enjoys it.

Kids love it!
The GeoSafari Jr. Dino Dig was a huge hit with my kids! The dirt is an interesting texture; not quite slime, definitely not sand. The only complaint is that the included Dino skeleton is a bit flimsy, but my daughter enjoyed building it. Overall, a great set that sets played with repeatedly!

Very entertaining
My son really enjoyed it, it kept him entertained for a solid 7 minutes but I feel like at this age attention span is short. He loves the kinetic sand so that's always a plus.

Dino
This is definitely better for older children not 4+. It has many parts, the dirt gets everywhere. My daughter loved it but it was messy
