Sandpits

Not only do sandpits offer endless entertainment, but they also provide valuable sensory and motor skill development. Children can explore the texture and properties of sand, improving their tactile senses and hand-eye coordination. It's a wonderful way to encourage imaginative play, social interaction, and outdoor activity. A perfect activity to compliment our full Outdoor play range. But why stop there? Personalise your child's sandpit with our range of Timber Treatment Options, allowing you to not only protect the sandpit but also add a splash of colour and make it truly unique.

Create a harmonious outdoor environment by incorporating both outdoor play and garden planters. Imagine your children playing and exploring in their charming play area, surrounded by vibrant flowers and greenery blooming in our stunning planters. It's a wonderful way to cultivate their imagination and connect them with nature.

Proper Maintenance of your sandpit

It is important to keep up regular maintenance of your sandpits to ensure their longevity. Here are just a few things parents need to do to ensure their kids space lasts all throughout childhood.

Cleaning

Remove any and all toys and pick out any visible pieces of debris prior to cleaning. To properly clean your child's sandpit, you will need the following items:

• Rake or Shovel

• Sieve (or a sand sifter)

• Warm soapy water

• Non-abrasive sponge

• Vinegar or a mild disinfectant

For regular cleaning, you do not need to remove/replace the sand completely, just use a rake or shovel to level out the sand, sifting for any additional debris. On top of this, keep an eye out for any potential contaminants from animals in the sand.

Once the sand has been cleared, clean the frame with warm soapy water and non-abrasive sponge, allowing time to air dry. Cleaning should be carried out depending on usage, but every few months is a good measurement to follow.

Sand Replacement

For personal use, we recommend replacing the sand in your sandpit annually to ensure a clean and sanitary play space for your child/children.

Covering your Sandpits

Whilst all our available sandpits come with a lid to keep sand cleaner and dry, you may want additional covering for your sandpits when not in use. If this is the case, a waterproof covering or tarp is recommended.
