Kids love them sand shell

Children love to dig and sculpt in the sand, open entire construction sites and decorate the sand cake with flowers and leaves. Playing in the sand is more than just a game. It promotes creativity and fine motor skills, stimulates the imagination over and over again and never lets boredom arise. But not every garden is big enough that a sprawling sandbox can fit into it. For the small garden, for the balcony or the terrace there is therefore the sand shell ,

Light, mobile and space-saving

A sand shell is the fast and handy variant of a sandbox. It is lightweight, mobile and can be used anywhere at any time. Especially small children prefer the clear sand shell as a playground. With play sandfilled, the child can start playing immediately after purchase. The sand shell consists of two halves, which fit exactly over each other, like a sea shell. The game is filled in the bottom of the game box and after the game is simply closed the lid. It does not have to be the case that little children come into contact with the faeces of stray animals while digging and playing. The lid serves as the perfect protection for this. And when the days get hot, it’s easy to get out of the sandbox paddling poolto conjure for the little ones. Sand out – water in. This allows the clam to be used almost all year round.

Although this mobile sandbox is called a sand shell, it does not always have the shape of a shell. Depending on the provider, there are also, for example, the shape of a flower, a turtle, an apple, a boat or a beach bee. When buying should be paid attention to shape, material and size. Because here too there are differences in the material thickness, the processing of the edges and just in the overall size.

Pros and cons for different shells

In comparison to the design, the sandbox BOAT by Ondis24 found the most followers. This boat design is slightly larger in size than the comparable conventional models and therefore well playable by two toddlers. It is the small integrated seat that is particularly appealing. The material is described as a high quality plastic, so that it can withstand a wide range of weather conditions. The disadvantage of this sandbox, however, is always stressed that the lid does not close to 100% waterproof. He should therefore always be complained with a heavy object.

Also from Ondis24 is the sand-clump sunflower, which is rated positive by many testers. Again, it is the bench and the bright color that convince. Unlike the sand shell BOOT, the sunflower is waterproof. Throughout the tight lid is rated as good, so even in heavy rain, the playground is dry and clean.

For example, the sand clam Beach Bee by KHW scores with its high-quality material. At Öko Test 2016 Beach Bee is under the heading children’s wading poolwith very good marks. The hard plastic of this clam is proven to be free of pollutants. This is an important point, especially in small children.
