Crabbie Sandbox By cukal6 on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
We bought this sandbox because it's just too adorable! We also liked it because it came with a lid. Who wants to play in a sandbox after it's been rained it. We first got it when my son was 2 or 3 and it was perfect. Then we had another child and it was still okay for a while. Now that they're bigger it's just too small for both of them to play in. It's really even too small for just one of them. One the box, it says for ages 1-6 but even my 4 year old has a little trouble. He fits in it just fine, but then there's not really a lot of extra room for toys. And he does not want to sit in there without any toys. I think this will be the last summer for this sandbox, and we'll probably have to build our own. If you have just one child, or even two little ones this is the perfect sandbox...it just won't last as long as you think it will.

My daughter has this sandbox and she is only one so it is fine for now. It would be a little small for two kids, but until we have that problem I love this sandbox.
The turtle sandbox similiar to this has been around a long time. I think this one is even cuter!
My son had this sandbox. It only lasted him to about the age of 3, then he just got too big for it
I do think it looks cute but I can see it is not big enough for two to play in.
I got this so my annoying terrier could have someplace to dig without ruining my yard. Do you think he appreciated it? NO! So I gave it to my neighbor's two-year-old, who used it as a wading pool for a summer!
That is very cute I never saw the crab we had the turtle.
That is really cute. I hate that it is getting to small for your kids. I have a baby boy who I figure would love to get messy in something like that in a few years. I can just imagine. Thanks for sharing.
Sounds like something that will keep the kids entertained for a spell.
My son had the turtle but he hated getting his hands dirty! The lid is great to keep misguided cats out of this sandbox.
I love that there are options other than the turtle. Variety is good!
