Sand in motion and Baby Vegas ~ Giveaway


 Baby Vegas Giveaway
When the drummer boys were little they loved building sand castles either in sandpit or at the beach .
Oh wasn't today a perfect beach day.
Sadly, we are not at the beach.
Far, far from it.


Sand in their undies
Sand in their hair,
When I said come inside
Sand was everywhere !

Often their eyes too. Painful.


Today we had a play with Kinetic Sand - 98% sand and 2% magic.What causes the sand to stick only to itself in a soft clump - is the 'magic' a bonding agent.


This sand-in-motion flows and feels like damp sand, but leaves surfaces completely dry - not exactly as mess-free as they say but we had fun digging, sculpting and molding.



Special properties make it soft and stretchy, the disadvantage is sadly the towers do sink into themselves , then it's time to re create.

Kinetic sand sticks to itself but not to the kids , it's reusable and it never dries out .
It is also non-toxic and anti-microbial.

When pressure is applied to kinetic sand, it keeps its shape allowing for all kinds of sculptures.

You'll want to know ... I found it very therapeutic to play with the sand too - like a squishy stress ball only more satusfying.

Kinetic Sand comes in amazing colours as well as SAND - we tested the 2.5KG bundle includes three bags of Red, Blue and Green Kinetic Sand. Beware - it does mix and if it doesn't bother you - good !
The slight mess didn't take long to clean up.

The bonus - it got them away from the iPad for half an hour or more.
