Our most recent bargain is the castle shaped sandbox I got for $7 at a garage sale. I brought it home, we filled it with sand and it’s been fun ever since. Our neighbor came over and said exactly what I was thinking, “That’s one less sandbox in the landfill.†I love my neighbors.
Unfortunately, Elise was napping the Sunny Sunday afternoon that these pictures were taken. I will have to get some of her in the sandbox as well. Elise’s style of sand-play is mostly filling and dumping, repeat.
Olivia prefers tossing sand (argh) and asking me to help her build sand castles. These are the “really big†sand castles that she wanted me to take a picture of her smashing.
Following this act of violence we proceeded to make Cair Paravel including the children, a pack of wolves, a whale, some dolphins, a dragon, and Aslan himself.
There is sand all over my kitchen floor.
I love sandboxes!!
I especially like your dd’s dress. Did you make that??
I did not make that dress, but I wish I did. I plan on using it as a template to make matching dresses for the girls out of some white with black polka dots fabric I have.
