One 50 lb bag of Playground Sand should do the trick. You can get it at most large hardware stores.

One bag is good but have two on hand. You would want playsand available at Toys R Us.

We put about two bags of play sand in the castle. One bag doesn't do it. You can get it at Kmart, Walmart, Home Depot/Lowes, any of those places, at least they have it here in Michigan.

you can get inferior sand instead, which is all you need for your purpose, from a big box store. Of course you can use this sand i just wouldn't waste it on that use

The sand is not provided. You can either add sand OR water. I added water to mine, and it works great.

I saw the sand at Brookstone first and was going to buy it. I went online to Amazon to check and see if it was available online. I bought the one at Amazon and am thrilled with it! I bought two boxes and am very happy with it! It appears to be just like the Brookstone sand and at a better price!

I tried the bag mixes but had best results with bulk sand and portland cement. You can buy a cubic yard of sand from garden center (assuming you have a way to transport) for around $15 and if you have any left over it can be used for other purposes. I mixed 4 parts sand to 1 part cement and added a small pinch of fiberglass fibers (search ebay "concrete fiber" - 2oz bag is plenty) for strength and the bricks turned out much better and are holding up well. Four gallons sand/1 gallon cement mix well in a wheelbarrow; add water until thoroughly mixed and workable. BTW, this is the same mix the curb guys use. Total cost should be under $50 unless you are doing a large project. Hope this helps. I tried the bag mixes but had best results with bulk sand and portland cement.

The interior depth of the sandbox is 7 inches. 150 pounds of sand will fill it.

You will want 500 to 700 pounds of sand. 10 to 14 50lb bags. We bought 14 and used 11.

You will need to go to a LOWES, or Home Depot, or some such store, and buy 2 50lb. bags.They should load it in your car for you. You need about 1 1/2 bags for a good amt. for children to play with.OR, if you want expensive COLORED sand, look on the WWW..........but, it IS expensive.I have this for my grandkids, and keep it on an enclosed porch, that way they can play with it even if it is raining.

Fill the side pockets with lots of sand once you get it opened and you should be set!

Not sure, bought this online. Was looking for good size and this looked bigger. Pretty happy with it. Suggest you look at how much sand each holds by volume or weight.

My son is 2 yrs old and plays with matchbox cars, target $1 plastic cars, various sized boats, and all kinds of other cars in the sandbox. We've used a construction dinosaur, a large Tonka truck in it-both with sand and water, just water, and just sand. The sand and water box will accommodate various sized cars on the tracks. The tracks are about 3 inches in width.

At any hardware or home improvement store. By 400 grit sand paper. I get three pieces out of each sheet, punch holes, good to go. Much cheaper!

You'll definitely need the sandbag for the hair light. Are you sure it's not there. It doesn't come filled, and at first I thought it was scrap. If it's not there you don't need need more than a few pounds of counter weight.

The base does not come with sand. I used the yellow pages to find a business that sells sand. I was lucky the owner gave me the sand. Please, make sure the pole of the umbrella will fit properly into the stand. My did not and to this day I have to place things around the pole and to make it sand up straight.

You have to fill it up yourself with either water or sand I believe - it was purchased for my daughter.

You don't need a sand and water table. I put 4 of the 5 pound boxes in my table and it fills up half. So if you're just using 1, one of those Rubbermaid type storage containers will work great. Not the shoe box size but the rectangle medium size. Not really big.
