The RocksForKids site is produced by two amateur, Canadian "rockhounds" and collectors, actually a K-12 teacher and an architect. The site provides introductory information and Web links on rocks and minerals for school children. Topics include: How Rocks & Minerals are formed, Identification of Rocks & Minerals and Uses of Rocks & Minerals. There is also a section for teachers offering information on rock-oriented careers, lesson plans, rock clubs and more. The language and presentation are clean and easily approachable, and cover both Canadian and American resources.
