Rock collections

It is so interesting to watch kids collect rocks.  Some are very choosy and only the prettiest or most interesting make it into the collection.  Others fill their pockets or containers, believing quantity makes the best collections.

When a special rock is found, they can't wait to show someone, sharing the beauty they discovered.

Each child has a favorite rock, and each of the favorites is unique.

Egg cartons make excellent rock collection boxes.

Sometimes bits and pieces of questionable materials make it into the collection.  The inquiry becomes "is this a rock?" Can any beautiful bit be part of the collection?
