Play sand is something that not a lot of us even think about as unsafe for our children. Children just love to play in every sand box they come across and they are not typically just there for a few minutes. They usually engage in really great imaginative play while in the sand. All of the sand boxes in childcare centres, playgrounds and in our own back yards are probably filled with toxic sand which the children who play in them breathe every time. The fact of the matter is that most play sand bought in stores today is highly toxic and carcinogenic. It makes it worse as children play in it and stir it up. The little crystals are breathed in by the child, sit in the lungs and over time with continued exposure may cause lung cancer and respiratory problems.

Needless to say, our sandbox is filled with beautiful white glistening non-toxic sand for our children to play with. It is shiny and so soft for the children to enjoy. They spend endless worry free hours in it. You can also use this sand to mold and shape creations and then let it dry out to go back to simple play sand. It is so worth the money and my children's health is worth it!
