Tiger eye

Hey kiddo! So, you know how sometimes rocks and stones can be really pretty to look at and have different colors and patterns on them? Well, there's a special kind of rock called Tiger Eye, and it's super cool!

Tiger Eye is a brownish-yellow stone that has lines and bands of different colors on it, usually brown and black. It kind of looks like the eye of a tiger (hence the name!). When the light shines on it just right, it can look like it's glowing, which is really neat!

Tiger Eye is made up of a mineral called quartz, which means it's pretty strong and can last a really long time. Some people even believe that Tiger Eye has special powers and can help you feel more confident and brave, kind of like a tiger!

So there you have it, Tiger Eye is a special kind of rock that's strong and pretty to look at, and some people believe it can give you a boost of confidence. Cool, huh?
