FamilyExpert Tips & Helpful Hints

• With some 5,000 minerals, both natural and polished gems, ancient tools, and other eye-catching pieces, this place is a visual treat for kids.
• Check out the fossil collection, including two dinosaur eggs--one a sauropod, the other a velociraptor.
• The section on Vesuvian minerals provides insight into the geologic history of Vesuvius (it first erupted 27,000 years ago) and the very human events immortalized at Pompeii and Herculaneum.
