Ideally, join a local mineral club and find sites where you can collect your own minerals. Or buy them online from websites or auction sites. Or buy them from rockshops near you. Or trade for them from other collectors.
Igneous rocks. When lava cools it becomes a rock. The longer time it takes to cool, the bigger the crystals it obtains.
near the surface of the earth
You can find crystals, meaning rocks and minerals in their natural crystal form (they grow that way), almost anywhere in nature - both on the ground and under the ground. Most crystals are mined, since many have formed millions of years ago. Check out rockhounding sites if you want to mine your own, but the easiest way to find crystals is to go to a rock shop or metaphysical store in your area. You can find them on line, but it is not the same as actually touching them in order to get to know what you are looking at. See also the link below.
Yes. Rocks containing crystals are called geodes. (Refer to wikipedia). Also, many rocks, particularly igneous rocks and some sedimentary rocks are crystaline in nature. Granite, for example, is typically made up of quartz, mica and feldspar.
Sand is made of quartz crystals and it is easy to find them (in larger size) in rocks. So you could get one for free.
you would find igneous rocks with small crystals at the bottom of the volcano, this is because when the rocks crack. It brakes apart into igneous rocks

They find cool places like the undersides of rocks to hide under during the day.
Gabbro is a group of dark, coarse-grained, intrusive mafic igneous rocks. They are often found beneath the Earth's surface where they form into crystals.
