Very disappointed students
We cracked open each geode in the bag, in student groups of 4. It was so disappointing that only one or two had a bit of a crystal hollow ... not much. I understand that nature determines which are hollow and filled with crystals, but this was a big let down. I think Oriental Trading should send us another bag, complimentary. We teachers buy a lot from you.

Geodes were not hollow. None. Some were broken on arrival.

Great Item
I have purchased these geodes many times. I used them as the final activity in our fourth and fifth grade earth science unit. The students loved breaking the geodes. Over the years I estimate we had less than 1% which had no crystal interior. Highly recommend.

the fun they brought
bought the geodes for children at church, using the analogy that you cannot know what is inside, and people are the same. they may look unhappy or ugly but inside they are loving and caring!! Thank you had fun with them! love your products!!!

NOT TOO SHABBY
The geodes were on the small side which made them a challenge to keep in place while trying to break them. Some were extremely difficult to break while others broke rather easily. Allow the adults were a little frustrated the kids had a great time and it went well with our lesson.

No regrets
Used these for a summer camp themed party along with all the other stuff we ordered. Everything came faster then I expected and packed really well. The geodes were definitely the favorite activity and for the price I honestly expected to just get a bunch of solid ones but it was so exciting to see them all open and only ONE was solid!! We’ve paid a lot more for these and had a not so good experience so this was great! They were the perfect size for the kids ages and they cracked easy.

How many are in each order?

Are these real geodes? Is there any way to get most of them around the 2 inch size? Kids will argue over different sizes. Or do you have larger sets?

  • BEST ANSWER: most were about the same size and they are real geodes. Easier to break than the ones offered by the VBS site
