Sand
Finding the perfect sandbox can be a very hit and miss affair - some are too high or low from the ground, some are awkward to erect and store, others won't withstand the wear and tear of group use. But this season several manufacturers seem to have renewed their efforts to combat these problems and there are plenty of new products to look out for.
Little Tikes has introduced a Construction Sandbox into its range. This is an extra large box, measuring 165 x 122 x 36 cm, with an integral working 'crane' and dump bucket to encourage imaginative play. The box holds up to 300 lb of sand and comes with a removable lid which has a moulded roadway for use as an extended play feature, and means that there is a greater play space for groups of children. Price 27.99.
