Hello from West Virginia!! I am new here but I have immensely enjoyed reading all of the information I have found here tonight!! So my kids and I, were bored Sunday evening, so I had a “ Who can find the prettiest rock“ contest. We all thought we found some nice ones and I made the kids dinner and put them to bed. I don’t know why because we have picked up rocks many other times before, but this night I soaked the rocks in CLR. I know that’s probably a horrible thing to do.… But the next morning after the kids were to school I scrub them real good and was amazed! I think there’s so many

Can someone help my 8 year old daughter figure out what type of fossil she has?
FreyaLovesFossils2022 posted a topic in Fossil ID
My daughter is very interested in fossils and has several my dad sent to her. She would like help identifying this particular large rock that appears to have lots of fossils in it. -
These were found in Myrtle Beach, SC. My 5 year old loves to search the beach for sharks teeth and shells. He picked these items up and begged to keep them. Just wonder exactly what they are. Thanks in advance for your help.

This past summer, we went to Dinosaur National Monument. I'd highly recommend it to anyone interested in dinosaur fossils and people with kids. It's a great opportunity to see fossil dinosaurs in their natural state and in a quarry, plus other fossils are around too (e.g. mini clams). I know you can't collect there, but it's good to see sites with an abundance of fossils the way they've been for ages. Lloyd

Sam Noble Natural History Museum Cub Scout Program -Fossils
Anna posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
John and I headed to Norman, Oklahoma yesterday to take part in a program the Sam Noble Museum held for Cub Scouts and Weblos. Upon completion, the scouts had earned their Geology belt loop and pin. This is an annual program--and they have similar activities for Girl Scouts. SNNHM did an excellent job with presenting a section on geology and another on paleontology. The boys were given a geological specimen bag, and a number of rock and mineral specimens to take home. Additionally, in the paleontology section, they were able to see a number of fossils up close, as well as take a few home. The- 7 replies
