RHEP 'I brought this for my baby to explore in. So far she’s used it as a ball pit. My friends little boy loves to play in there with the sand. I put 2 15kg bags of sand in and there’s still room for more. I love that it has a lid so you can have more activities at the same time.' Laura 'We bought this so that one half could be used as a paddling pool for our children and the other half for the dog to keep him cool. Both of them have enjoyed using it. It’s sturdy and feels like it will be long lasting.' WillowB 'Good size and quite sturdy for the price. Got it to use as paddling pools for 3 large boxer dogs and its holding up well.' For kids to play safely in their sandbox, it's important that the box is kept covered until the next playtime, which is why we would always recommend a sandpit with a lid or covering. This is also important to make sure that rain and any other nasties can't get in and affect the sand. With regular raking and appropriate drainage, you should be able to keep your sandpit clean and in tip-top condition. Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong. Sponsorship & Advertising Policy

Neenee 'I bought this for my great granddaughter but unfortunately it's nit suitable. It's much bigger than I thought it would be and too big to get in my car to return it' Lauren 'Brought for my daughter to have in the garden with some sand in. She absolutely loves it. Plays in it for hours.' Nicoleee 'Bought this sandpit/water pit. My little girl spends lots of time in it. Reasonably priced. Fantastic!' Sian 'Bought this pool for my dog in the heatwave. Much larger than expected and very solid - she just barked at it and would go anywhere near it...' dry and has good drainage. The sandpit needs to drain naturally to prevent it becoming waterlogged, so avoid any areas of the garden that are naturally wet or likely to be affected by possible flooding.

PaulJV 'Well made and reasonable value. Had to return, as too large for where we wanted to use it, and not easy to store.' Items that are not available in store will take 3-5 working days (excluding weekends and bank holidays) to be delivered to your nominated store. Depending on any accompanying sand toys you choose, your child can also start to explore imaginative play, as well as assisting their sensory development when playing in their sandbox.

Cb 'Light and easy to manoeuvre. Use one half as a lid to cover the sand pit. Big enough for my 6yo to sit on it.' Slayer 'Bought this a couple of weeks ago. Comes as a pair - too and bottom, which is great as I use one for my dog and gave the other to my goddaughter.' Lindyloo999 'We wanted a sandpit for our 3 year old granddaughter. This one was ideal because we can put sand in one side and water in the other. She absolutely loves it. We’re so pleased with it we’re buying another one so we can keep the water and sand in them with the tops on!'
