Step2 Natural Playful Sandbox, Kids Activity Sensory Table, Summer Outdoor Toys, Lid Included, For Toddlers 1+ Years Old

For my son's 3rd birthday I wanted to buy a sandbox that met all my specifications but yet was fun for him too---size, durabilty, lid design, and cost were my main focus. After researching every sandbox I could find and reading all the reviews, the Naturally Playful Sandbox looked like the best buy. What a great choice it turned out to be! For starters, the size is very roomy (most sandboxes are way to small)--this one is big enough to play in without sand flying out everywhere. It can adequately hold 2 children, possibly 3 if they are small (age 1-2). The design is good because it is very sturdy and holds it shape. The four "rock" corners make a nice seating area since my son will NOT sit down in the sand to play. It can hold 4 bags of play sand very easily which is good so the sand is deep enough to dig in and bury items! My biggest concern was lid design since living in Florida down pours of rain can become an issue. If rain or moisture gets in, sand becomes green. The lid fits snug enough to stay on and the weight of the lid seems to be enough to hold it down under normal wind conditions. When the lid is on, it has a large enough dome shape that you can store all the play toys under it, inside the sandbox. The overall style of the box is good since it blends in with your outdoor surroundings, as opposed to having a big purple dinosaur in your back yard. It also doubles as a planter when your child outgrows it. The surrounding rock shapes would compliment any landscape. Overall, I would rate this as a wonderful buy---and the price can't be beat. Would definitely recommend! You won't be disappointed.

My kids, now 3 and 1, love this sand box. I bought it almost a year ago and my daughter was using it around 8 months old. My 3 year old just loves it. Perfect size for them. Lid fits well and we have had no issues with water leaking into it. It does get humidity during summer. And the sand on the bottom tends to be a little wet but my kids like it. Perfect molding sand. Took three 5lb bags of sand to fill. Will have to add more this summer. No cracks for almost a year of use.

We love this sand box. It is attractive; we placed it next to our herb garden and it looks very natural. It is durable and definitely made to withstand the outside. The cover's shape helps to keep it in place during wind and helps rain water to drain down as well as keep enough space on the inside for larger toys that stay nicely protected. It has ventilation holes and yes, there is a chance you get some bugs and small animals in, although it has not happened to us, you need that to ventilate unless you want your kid to play with moldy sand. It fits about 4-5 bags of play sand to fill it up about halfway. The sand in it stays wet just right, perfect for sandcastles. Dry sand is no fun. I find the edges to be quite ok to sit on, no pain at all. To smooth the edges like some reviewers suggested would take away from the rocky natural desing. It is also a perfect size, to my opinion, for 1-2 kids. We have one and it serves us great. Mommy plays with him, and it fits the two of us just fine. This sand box is absolutely perfect and we are very pleased with our purchase. Great present for our 2 year old for his birthday. I have NOTHING bad to say about this. All absolutely perfect, well thought off and well built. This is very rare for me to be 100% pleased with toys these days, well this one is the winner. If I could I'd give it 10 stars.

Very nice! Happy with it!

I like the cover, though I’ll always put a rock or something on it as I didn’t feel it was secure. The size is good for my 3 year old. We only just started using this so I don’t know if it gets water or bugs in it a lot. I didn’t like putting it together. There are no predrilled holes so I had to guess at the angles to drill the screws in and messed up a few times. The amount of screwing needed begs for a drill, not a manual screwdriver, but the angles required make using a drill difficult. If you have a nice long drill bit, use it to make life easier. I do like this affordable plastic sandbox, but I just don’t know if I love it so that’s why I only gave it 4 stars. It’s certainly more attractive than the green turtle (at least to me) and my kid could not care less about looks so long as she can make a sandy mess haha. I think this holds 4x50 lb bags of sand (200 lbs total). My husband didn’t listen to me and put in 5 bags. It’s quite full but holding fine. There’s just less room for toys to remain in the box with that much sand. The lid is domed which helps with both room for toys and rain run-off, presumably.

Kids love sandboxes a lot. It’s big enough to fit my four-year-old and two-year-old inside.

We have had other sandboxes in the past and this one is so much better. It’s durable, fun for kids, holds a good amount of sand, the lid stays tight on to keep water and bugs out. I recommend!

Both of my grands love this! Easy to assemble and adorable. One note the instructions say 15 bags of playsand. Absolutely not! We used maybe 5 or 6!

Thoroughly researched sandboxes for my 2-year old and this one came out on top, not disappointed. Large enough for him to play in, small enough to fit on our deck. I wanted to put it on our elevated deck so the sand did not attract ticks. The lid is designed to shed water (other sandboxes with flat lids will collect/pool water), we've had a few summer storms and no water has gotten in and soaked the sand. It's not an eyesore like a turtle or crab. The 4 corner posts allow your child to sit on the edge and play if they don't feel like getting right in. The one we got is more of a reddish-brown colour, but still looks really good. Can't go wrong with Amazon delivering free to your door if you're like us and don't have a vehicle large enough to transport it home from a store. Material seems very durable, yet light enough my son is starting to take the lid off by himself. Having a lid was crucial as we have neighbourhood cats that like to roam and 'do their business' in peoples gardens, flower beds, and I wouldn't doubt this sandbox if they could.

1歳の娘にサンタさんからとしてクリスマスイブ夜中に設置。 翌日寒い中、娘ガッツリ夢中。 抗菌の砂も入れておいたので、安全な砂場デビュー☆ 以来寒い日でも、嫁は砂遊びに付き合わされているそうな…(-_-;) 子供の創造性を育てる、且つ安全にという意味では非常に良い製品だと思います。 昨今の公園の砂場は不衛生らしいので。 少し過保護かな?

Brought this for my two dogs they love digging in the sand so don't dig as much in the lawn

Great size! Very sturdy. Love the lid.
