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?
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.
Well that pic was taken when kids weren't here... Only with no kids the place can look all super organized, no? ...
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.
If you visited or if you're using a childcare provider found on DaycareBear, do not hesitate to leave a review. This will most certainly help other parents!
