Possible fossils

Hello my 9 year old son loves finding unique rocks, fossils, bones, etc. Can anyone tell me if these are any types of fossils? We’re located in Ruidoso, NM, our property has a lot of sandstone in some areas. Thanks

Hi 

Good your son is interested. I can see some possible Bivalves and Brachiopods, so yes certainly some fossils.

I'm not very educated on marine fossils, but at the top left of your third (and next to last) picture, there is a fossil item that resembles a rugose coral to me.  Someone with more knowledge could probably tell you more about that, especially if you add a picture focused more on that item.
