Step2 Naturally Playful Sand Table

Product Information

Lid with elastic tie-downs protects sand from potential critters, and the molded roadways provide an additional play surface while covered. Lid is shaped like a turtle shell, and will help to keep out any unwanted things from the sand or water inside. Regardless of your yard size, there’s a sandbox that will work for you. If you have a spacious yard, your possibilities are endless. But you may have to get a little more creative if you have a small yard, shared space, or no yard at all. If you want to save space while offering your child a variety of outdoor play opportunities, look for a sandbox that serves more than one purpose. There are many options with dividers for sand and water play — but be warned, if your kids are anything like mine, the sand and water are unlikely to stay in the correct compartments, and you may end up with a giant mud table.

This table comes with what is called “storage mode.” A plastic table cover can be used over the play area, equipped with elastic bands to hold it down. This cover is easy enough that children can use it by themselves. Versatility, for example, is important when choosing a table. A table that offers both a sand and a water side will be a better option for a child who is interested in building sandcastles, for example, because water can easily be added to the sand side for this very purpose. Size

There is no need to deny your child a home beach. Here are some tips to help you keep your sandbox clean (3): The table is made of a sturdy enough plastic that it can support the weight of an adventurous child who may attempt to climb into it. This water table features a circular shape and has three large plastic legs to hold it up. This one is potentially the best water table for toddlers.

The activity table’s open design allows multiple toddlers to play together, flexing their sharing, communication, and social skills with friends! When playtime fun is done, cover the activity table with the included lid that features elastic tie-downs for a secure fit. The lid includes molded-in roadways for an extra play surface for mini cars, too! Made in USA of US and imported parts. When finished with play, this table comes with a large, one piece lid that can be placed over both sides and secured with elastic cords to prevent any unwanted critters from getting into the play table. For parents that have more than two kids, this larger table might be the answer to getting all of your kids to have fun at the same time. Has a lid to prevent unwanted materials from getting into the sand. The lid is also domed, meaning toys can be stored in the box as well. Another thing to keep in mind is where the table will be located in or around your home. If outdoors, the table will need to have a cover of some sort to prevent wildlife and insects from infiltrating your child’s play table. Without this cover, the table will be a feeding ground for bacteria or insects, which is never wanted for anything your child will be playing in.

HELP

This sandbox measures 29.5 by 33 by 30 inches and features a two-sided table. The sand section holds up to 20 pounds of sand, while the water basin can support 4 gallons of water. There’s a palm tree in the middle that gives it a tropical feel and a watering hole for the dinos. As mentioned before, the size of your sand/water table will be one of the most important things to keep in mind. Children come in all shapes and sizes, as do water and sand tables. You want to be sure you’re choosing a table that suits your child’s needs and personality, but you also want to be sure they are able to reach it! All sand and water tables have their dimensions listed. If you don’t see any dimensions, I wouldn’t suggest buying that table. Durability Another potential risk with outdoor sand/water boxes is mold and bacteria. When the sand becomes wet, there is a chance that it could grow certain bacterias that could be harmful to your child. By moving the sand indoors, or taking extra outdoor precautions by purchasing a table with a lid, you can mitigate or remove the chance of bacteria growing on the surface. Step2’s Play Store Sandbox is unique to this category, as it’s more of a box than a table. This box is marketed to be put outdoors, but it is actually useful indoors as well! When put into a playroom, putting a tarp down under it will prevent any sand spillage onto the floors.
