About
Our Mission
There is a unique magic that comes with getting lost in playtime, especially for our children. And for us, it has always been as simple as trucks and a heap of dirt (or sand). We founded The Sandbox with the goal of providing children with an interactive and sensory-rich play experience that sparks their creativity and imagination. Let's dig our way to happiness together!

Why The Sandbox?
Children are drawn to the simple yet magical world they can create with sand. It's a tangible and malleable material that allows them to use their imagination freely. In this era of constant stimulation and technology, playing in the sand encourages kids to engage their minds and bodies in creating their own world. At The Sandbox, we believe that each child's imagination is what makes them special, and playtime is crucial for their growth and development. Playing in the sand not only stimulates the senses but also nurtures creativity and imaginative thinking.

The Sand
Determining which type of sand to use was our first crucial decision. We understood the importance of choosing a safe and clean option, as many store-bought sands can be sticky, dusty, or even contain harmful bacteria. After extensive research, we discovered an ideal solution: natural sand made from sustainable calcium carbonate found on beaches in the Bahamas. This sand is professionally dried and screened before being shipped, ensuring minimal dust. It also does not contain silica, a common ingredient in children's play sands that can be harmful. Customers have raved about the cleanliness of our play area, with staff constantly sweeping and maintaining the floors and seating areas. Here are some top features of our sand:
- Silica-free
- Dust-free
- Allergen-free
- Natural
- Non-toxic
- Round and smooth

At our playspace, we have implemented a meticulous process to ensure that every child's experience is not only enjoyable but also hygienic.
Preventative Measures
To keep our sandbox areas clean, we strictly enforce a no-drink and no-snack policy. Our team is constantly monitoring and inspecting the sandbox to remove any prohibited materials.
Maintaining Fluffiness
Our sand is aerated on a daily basis by turning it over and exposing it to air. This helps keep it fluffy and pristine for all who play in it.Hygiene and SanitizationWe use a non-toxic solution made from vinegar to regularly treat the sand, eliminating any bacteria. Our sandbox toys are also thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis to ensure they are free of germs and dirt.
Reducing Dust
We understand the importance of cleanliness beyond just the sandbox area. That's why we have invested in top-of-the-line filtration systems that continuously circulate clean air throughout the environment.
