Kids love sand play and the Sand Table with Lid makes it easy for all! Children and sand, it’s a successful pairing that probably goes back hundreds of years. Why does sand play matter so much? Children like to dig away at sand, to pour it, run it through their hands, and build with it. They love the feel of it, and the way it constantly shifts, collapses, and can be put back together again in many different forms. It appeals to their natural curiosity and helps get their imagination working. Sand play is open-ended, so kids learn how to define their own limits and draw on their own resources to make the most of it.
