So excited to play outside in this sandbox all spring & summer!

Comment “sand” & I’ll send you the link!

Easy to put together with lots of sensory play, sand play, water play, and rotating sand wheel and sand chute!

& you don’t need to have this exact sand box for your toddler to play & learn, any container with sand can work! & there are so many different activities to play like :

1. Treasure Hunt
-Bury little treasures and let toddlers dig them up with shovels or hands. You can even give clues like “Can you find the red crab?”

2. Sand Bakery
-Pretend to bake muffins, cakes, or pies using wet sand. Add leaves or sticks for decorations. “Mmm! You made a sand cake!”

3. Fill & Dump
-Let them scoop sand into containers, dump it out, and repeat. It’s oddly satisfying for toddlers and helps build coordination.

4. Sandy Car Wash
-Drive cars through the sand, then take them to the “car wash” to clean them off. Great for combining sensory play and pretend play.

5. Build a Sand Zoo
-Create little enclosures in the sand and place animals inside. Let your toddler play zookeeper or just explore freely.
