The boys used a teeny screwdriver and little hammer to excavate their treasures.
Here we have a marble...other treasures included a quarter, and extra board game pieces from Monopoly.

Treasure Stones
This weeks theme over at Unplug Your Kids was stone. We made these Treasure Stones that I found in my Family Fun magazine a few months ago.

Very cool project. I think that I need to try these with the boys. We tried it with some plaster of paris, it was really difficult to get things out.
These look really neat. Can you break them by hand? My little treasure hunter would be fascinated! :)
How cool! :)
These are awesome... I have never heard of such a thing...I wonder if you can make them without the coffee, since I dont drink it, i rarely have any around?
Cool idea!
Those look great! I remember seeing the project, but haven't tried it.
Oh, super cool!!! Do they dry really hard? You mentioned a hammer. I'm going to have to bookmark this so that I don't forget where I found it *grin* I'm so glad you shared!

Very neat!
Still neat even if you don't really need the hammer *grin* My oldest would love it if you really had to hammer away at them to get the treasure out :) We do the handprints in cement to and used some of the leftover cement yesterday to print my youngest sons hands :) It makes such fun memories later.
