Abstract:

Many kids enjoy picking up rocks and there are many places in the Triangle area where they can find them. The area is part of the Triassic Basin and pieces of coal, petrified wood, and garnets, and even gold can be found in the area. Two of the area’s museums have interesting collections and several area parks have places where kids can add to their collections.
