Sand Table with Locking Lid

The Sand Table is a unique piece of children’s play equipment that is designed to allow children to stand, rather than sit, as they explore and manipulate a multitude of sensory items. Standing at the table helps reduce the amount of sand trapped in shoes and clothing that makes its way into the building. Children can change the physical properties of the sand by mixing water with the sand then pouring and sifting it dry. Adding water to the sand also allows children to shape and create land and water forms. The Sand Table includes a solid plastic lid with latch mechanism.

Sand Table Activity Panel Add-On

The Sand Table Activity Panel Add-On has two clear shoots that allow the children to pour the sand into the shoot and observe the sand slide down and back into the Sand Table.
