Even though this wasn't my idea I feel very proud of myself for creating this for Ella. I found this on Pinterest and I couldn't wait for the weather to warm up so she could enjoy it. Instead of purchasing a sand table or a large wooden sand box that cost at least $50-100 I bought a large rubber maid container($13) and a bag of sand ($5) and thats it! When we are done playing we just snap the lid shut. If I don't want her playing in the sun I can wheel it into the shade. It's perfect. Everyone knows Ella doesn't like getting dirty anyways so she doesn't mind sitting outside of the box. Now I just have to convince her it's ok to get her hands dirty. As soon as she gets sand on her fingers she wants to wipe them off just to put her fingers back into the box. Oh well...I guess she will have to figure that one out for herself.
