Hi playfelt, I like your sandbox. Mine is the turtle one that I got from Toys R US... It can only fit 2 kids comfortably. Did you make it and install it yourself? Was it too hard?

If anyone figures out how to post pics from iPad let me know!!!

Love everyone's setup and how different all our spaces are!

Here's a pic of mine....and my little guy too!

we have a hamster in teh daycare room too, and ds has one in his room. the kids love bella and hammy

We built it ourselves. Basically we started with 4x4 posts in the corners and then attached the side boards which were 1x6 decking materials. There is also a 4x4 post in the middle of each of the sides. The top board is also a 1x6 decking board. I don't allow the kids into the box. They kneel around the edge and play and can sit on the ledge or play on there. Mostly they use the ledge for play and yes some sand falls out on the ground each time but a couple bags to top up mid summer if necessary isn't that bad. There is a piece of board to cover the sandbox too that I just lift off. It rests on the ledge.

One thing I have seen is kits - think Canadian Tire has them on sale in the flyer this week. It is made of the composite plastic and has corner sections. Should be pretty easy to put together.

Whoa patty cake! I LOVE your space!

To put up pics, all I do is use an online image hosting site like tinypic.com and you upload then copy and paste the html code here. Easy peasy!

Hi,

Got rid of 1st pics for privacy reasons! Waiting for original poster to show her space!

I do not have pets, but I would consider one that does not require too much time, like a fish (I've been told that you have only to change the water and feed them)... How much "work" does a hamster needs? Kids must love them!

Our hamsters aren't much work at all. We use carefresh bedding and that allows me to only change their litter twice monthly. Other than that, we feed them together, and change their water every morning after the daycare kids get here. It's a little ritual we have. They are pretty solo creatures. They tolerate handling, but they'd rather just be left alone, so IMO, perfect for kids who are fickle about pets.

I will take pics this weekend when the rooms are clean. I'll do the outside but I need to clean the area up too.
