Comet Trail Countdown Adventure Kit
Comet Trail Countdown Excavation Adventure Kit
The cruiser is ready. The survey reports are scrambled. The countdown is on.
Comet Trail Countdown launches a solar-system expedition aboard a survey cruiser with a closing return window.
Kids begin with a six-lesson online science adventure. Compare our Sun with distant stars, investigate rocky and giant planets, and sort small-body clues. Zoom out to the Milky Way and evaluate telescope and probe evidence to bring the survey home.
Then comes the excavation finale. Open the kit to uncover six assorted geological specimens, compare their features, and match each find to one of six specimen Discovery Cards. After the discoveries have been identified, open the sealed Gemling Mystery Mix blind bag to reveal one surprise collectible Gemling.
Enjoy the six-compartment dig as one big discovery experience or save compartments for smaller celebrations after lessons. Every theme uses the same geological specimen collection. Assortments vary and are not selected to match the online lesson topics.
