Digging For Gemstones

Prospecting for a great birthday party or educational outing for the kids? ... Then welcome to the wonders of Mother Earth Gallery & Mining Co. where fantasy and reality merge to give your children an experience to treasure!

Your child's party will be one to remember when they celebrate this special day partying in our Miner's Shack Party Room, joining with their friends in a mining adventure.

Play the game of ROCKO. Similar to bingo, kids dig in buckets of gravel to find minerals to fill up their cards. Winners receive beautiful agate slices.

See "Mining Around the World" - A 12-minute video trip to several working mines showing where minerals are found and how they become finished gemstones.

Do the Mining Experience - Children don helmets with headlamps, grab their own bucket, and enter the mine where they dig for 5 minutes and take home what they find -- up to one pound of amethyst, pyrite, geodes, shark teeth and more. A list of minerals with descriptions is given to each child.

Discover Our Globe Cake -- The kids can sing happy birthday or celebrate whatever the event over a delectable chocolate buttercream cake showing all the continents. Juice and paper goods are included.
