Mine cost around $6-7.
1 (50lb) bag of play sand (at Lowe's for $5.00)
1 storage bin with lid - the under the bed type of container is better. We already have this so that saved us money too.
sand toys - target has a good variety of affordable even dollar sand toys. You can always count on the .99 cents store too.
measuring cups ( extra cups that you have in the kitchen that you rarely use)
Directions:
* Just pour the sand in, add some toys, and you now have a toddler sandbox. The lid comes handy since there's a lot of stray cats here in the area. (sprinkle a little bit of cinnamon to avoid ants.)
Easy right? I promise you. Your kids will love it!

What I love about this style is you can cover it up (if you use a bin with a lid) to keep the sand clean from animals. Thanks for sharing @DearCreatives party! Theresa I'll be sure to give this a shout out!
ReplyDeleteThe cover is convenient and good for her health. I suppose that you put the lid on ad or store it inside after she's done playing. Kids can pick up parasites from sandboxes that are left exposed to cats and dogs.
ReplyDeletehi there..yes you are definitely right. We make sure to put the lid back when it is not in use. Thank you for stopping by..
