Playing with sand generates an endless supply of sensory experiences.
Children enjoy working with a material whose properties are ideally suited to carrying out a whole host of experiments. Sand games present the perfect opportunity for children to play together and enjoy learning about their own sensory potential and develop their fine motor skills.
As children play with sand, they experience a unique form of sensory education. This is because they gain awareness of the concepts of shape, state, weight, and volume. Additionally, when using sand play accessories like diggers, buckets, and moulds they also learn about cause and effect relationships.
Sand games and activities encourage children in the playground to play together, share equipment, and respect each other.
A good deal of early socialisation and the development of personality occurs in the sand pit. Our sand games equipment is suitable for ages 2 and above. This enables even your playground’s youngest visitors to enjoy playing in the sand.
The process of building a larger sandcastle, tower, shape, or drawing involves complex organisation within peer groups. This helps each child understand their relationships with others and gain an awareness of their role within a team. Installing larger playground sand boxes with multiple different types of sand equipment allows children to work together to get creative and show off their skills.
