    And while it may be an issue I noted that the articles didn't include how many hours upon hours a child had to spend standing over the sandbox breathing in the dust before it would cause a health issue. I remember when lead in PVC blinds was such an issue but how many of us let our kids gnaw on them as teething toys which apparently was part of the study they did. Afraid I will be just using regular play sand as usual in my sandbox. I take out the old stuff and put it in a bin at the front that becomes the sand we put on the icey sidewalk next winter and put fresh stuff in the sandbox. I don't let the kids into the box but instead they need to play around the edge of the box. Not that that changes anything other than the amount of sand in the pockets and shoes.
