can this sand be used for a typical kids sandbox?

I wouldn't recommend this sand for a sandbox. It is a much finer grain than what is usually found in a sandbox. It may cause respritory issues.

It's fairly dusty, and you would spend a LOT of $ to get enough for a sandbox. So, no. Check at Home Depot or look up play sand in a search engine.

Yes it could, it's very clean! But that would be very expensive for a sandbox of any decent size. You can go to the hardware store, like Home Depot, and they sell 50 pound bags of Quikrete play sand for $4.

Yes indeed. It's like a fine grade builders or play sand. I would stick with white versus colored versions though as some coloration can rub off if there is moisture present.

I used 11 bags of playsand just enough for the children to play with and get used to the sand box. You can always add more.

The sand, when wet, turns heavy, almost like clay, which is good for sandboxes to make castles, etc., but, I wouldn't use it in an aquarium as it might mess up the filters and it might cause a problem to clean the bottom of the tank. I think that you would be safer and happier with colored gravel. Happy fishing. +JMJ+

I'm sure it would be fine to use. It's really fine sand and looks beautiful. Not sure if this helps. Goodluck! :)

I used it over Por Putty as a sealer ..I have not tried to sand it but would think it would be sand-able.. with something like a demel but not by hand.. the stuff is like black tooth paste and like the por putty will dry hard..being paste like it spreads very easy, so not much sanding was needed..I hope this was a help

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

No. The Sandbox needs to be purchased separately. The sand is actually very "clean" and leaves little to no residue. We have used a different box.

I've only used the sand for my grandson's small standup sandbox. The sand is very fine, clean, and soft. I hope this helps.

I gave the sand and the box to my husband at Christmas. He's put a plastic top on it but I'm sure it wasn't necessary. It's not air tight and the sand is just like new. Hope you enjoy it.

Yes! And when I bought it the sand was packaged separately, so you should be able to use the pieces on their own without even having them touch the sand.

Yes, the umbrella fits right inside the sandbox. Very cute sandbox. My grandson has hours of fun with it.

Unfortunately it isn't. It will fill about an inch maybe 1 1/2" in the bottom of an inside sand table that is about 16 x 20". It is great sand, feels really nice and isn't dusty, and will buy it again for that purpose. Unfortunately, it would take many boxes for an outside sand box. I would recommend play sand from a home improvement store for that purpose. Much cheaper $5/bag and in 50lb bags.

I would say no to sand. It tends to dig into the snow unless it is well packed. pretty hard to control. My kids 11 and 13 don't really care for it.

Yes! There are some ideas of how to build it and any marble works fine with it. If your kids are anything like mine, you'll need to replace lost marbles eventually. :) This is a fabulous set. My siblings and I played with Marbleworks for hours as kids and now we are buying additional sets for our kids. Enjoy!

I purchased this table for our grandson. They did use both sides for sand. It doesn't need much sand to be fun. Too much and it will be more of a mess when adding toys. Enjoy!

Yes. Comes with instructions on how to fill with sand and bricks if desired.

You can IF the container is essentially leak-proof. The sand is extremely find and will pass through most fabrics eventually.
