Our young monsters are very interested in minerals and fossils. they like to collect them too. Every now and then we visit the International Minerals Fair. Piggy Banks are turned over for it, the monsters love it!
Tickets are not that expensive and we really enjoy looking around the venue with them. International Mineral Fairs are regularly organized throughout the Netherlands, so we will go see and visit one again again.
You see the most extraordinary minerals, from tiny to really big ones, with or without lighting. It's going to be difficult to choose! But 1 thing has already been decided, with unanimous votes, we're taking a saltstone lamp home!
The biggest attraction for our kids is splitting a Geode. They can choose a pretty round stone and then split it themselves. What's inside is a wonderful surprise!
After this adventure we walk to the parking lot, time to go home! All our treaure is safely stored in our bags and a lively discussion about what the best places are for our latest purchases is going on.
The ride home won't be boring!
