Step2 Crabbie Sandbox, Ages 1+

I love that this sandbox comes with a cover so the sand can stay clean. It prevents water, debris, and animals from getting into it. The plastic is strong and easy to clean. It is big enough to really get in there an play without taking up too much room in the yard.

I’m always a little put off by public sandboxes, not knowing what is in there so I love that this small sandbox can be placed in my backyard with ease. I love the little crab and the fact that it comes with a cover to protect from rain and just generally when not in use. Plus I can clean it whenever I need and refill the sand. Also this is the perfect size for my toddler to play in and when he’s older I can repurpose it to hold outdoor toys and such.

This sandbox is great, we've used it for so many other things than just a sandbox. We've used it for drinks and filled it with ice and we've also used it as a kiddie pool for the kids. Gives the kids a bunch of fun weather filled with water or sand.

Bon petit bac à sable. Un peu plus grand que les autres petits bac du genre. Couvercle pratique.

We bought the Step2 Crabbie Sandbox when my son was almost 2 years old to help give him some relief from the heat wave that was happening at the time. He's always loved water, so we filled it with water at first with no problems, and then in the fall, we put in sand and "buried treasure" for him to find. In the summer, we just packed up the sand and turned it back into a pool! Because it can be used for 2 different things, my son has not lost interest in it (he's almost 5 now) and he enjos it all year round. I especially like the lid that keeps dirt, leaves and bugs out of the sand and water.We store it in the garage during the colder months and use it almost exclusively in the shade to protect my son's skin and to add to the longevity of the sandbox, so it still looks and works perfectly with absolutely no cracks in the plastic or leaks. We expect it to look great for many more years before we pass it on to a younger friend.Added bonus: We dump the water in the yard once a week - it's covered when not in use, so it doesn't get very dirty - and the sudden influx of large amounts of water brought our sickly-looking Asian Pear tree back to life, yielding 50-60 pounds of fruit by the end of this summer! We hate to waste water because we live in the high desert, but I feel like giving our family fresh, dried and canned pears for the rest of the year makes up for it. :-)
