It’s a turtle.
It’s a pool.
IT’S… a SANDBOX!!
Yes, I turned my son’s sandbox into a pool one hot day this April… Little Tikes already had a leg up on me, because they redesigned their classic Turtle Sandbox 33rd Anniversary edition with a lazy river around the outer edge to bring more fun to sandbox time!
I just took it a step further and put water where the sand would go… my son loved it. Yes, we will get sand eventually, but as it holds 150 lbs of sand, and I am pregnant, that is a job for hubby on the weekend!
Our son loved getting in and out of the sandbox – it’s just the right height for him as a two-year-old to climb over the edge. And he loved making the 3 floating, squirting turtles included with the sandbox “swim” around the river!
This version of the Little Tikes Turtle Sandbox is a bit smaller than ones I’ve seen previously, and I don’t think more than 2 kids could play INSIDE it… but since my son isn’t at the point where he has a lot of friends over, and we have a small yard, it works for us! I’m so happy he will have a real sandbox to dig and play in all summer – up till now, we’ve put a little sand in a cardboard box for him, but he really wants to get his trucks out and make big roads and tunnels!
Two other great features of this sandbox – there’s lots of turtle shell detailing, and it comes with a lid (important as we have roaming neighborhood cats that might mistake this for their litter box!). The lid is attached to the base so it won’t blow away in the wind while your child is playing.
Little Tikes makes such fun toys, especially for outdoor fun! Find more great Little Tikes toys online (many Made in the U.S.A), and follow them on Facebook!

We take the kids to the park to play in the sandbox and they love making “flower gardens” in the sand with sticks and Dandelions.

This would be perfect for my 2 year old little girl, i have been looking for a cheap sandbox for her for this summer, we have a new place with a yard so i can actually get her toys & such to play with in the yard. My next mission will be a pool. She LOVES turtles & every time we go to the park it is almost impossible to get her out of the sandbox. As long as these have been around i never though it could double as a pool, i have only ever seen it as a sandbox, lol.

My little grandson’s t-ball team had a water balloon fight after their game last weekend. They had a blast. I’d love this sandbox for him to play in when he’s at my house.

We were going to turn the bottom of my daughter’s playset into a sandbox but would have to figure out a way to cover it so neighbor cats don’t use it as a cat box! lol. This would make a great alternative idea!

My daughter got a pool this past summer for her then 4 month old daughter to float around in. I thought that she would be terrified but she looked like a little mermaid just relaxing on the floatie.
I know that if she had a sandbox she would enjoy that experience as well. I like to give my grandchildren all types of textures to experience and sand is one she hasn’t had yet.

My daughter is turning 2 this summer and we’re looking into what kind of pool to get her. I like this turtle box one! I remember the older version, but I like the little river part. I think she would have a lot of fun floating things in it like your son did.

My girls had a water table last year, but it accidentally got left behind when we moved. They loved using it to make mud pies for “snack”! I think that was their most played with toy last summer. They would love this sandbox, esp my 2 year old!

We have a small plastic pool we bought last summer at Walmart for our 2 little granddaughters to cool off and enjoy playing in. I would love this sandbox for them in our backyard and really like the new design with the extra ring around the inside of the turtle sandbox. They could have a lot of fun with this versatile product using water or sand. 🙂

In texas it already feels like summer and we spend most of our days outside playing with buckets of water, the hose, etc. My 14 month old LOVES to dig in the dirt, so would love to give her a designated place to do so…instead of in my plants or lawn 😉

We have a water table and love it! I looked at getting one of the water/sand combo tables but didn’t think the two sides would stay separate with a toddler 🙂 It would end up one big messy mush. We had a turtle sandbox growing up so it would be fun for our kids to have one too.

So, we have one of those cheap plastic kiddie pools and every time there’s a storm it keeps flying away. We’ve found it like halfway down the street once, which I don’t understand cause that means it had to climb our fence. Yeah…
So I like that this thing has a cover and hopefully weighs more than the other one. Thanks!!

Wow!!! This sandbox has come a long way. I think I bought one for my nephew’s first birthday about 15 years ago. What a difference! I love the river around the sandbox. What a great idea…maybe a messy idea!!?? Sandboxes and water go hand in hand though. Very few days go by without water for a weed soup or mud pies or even rivers and ponds in the sand box. Enjoy!

We made a large box out of landscaping timbers, but good, fine dirt from the nursery in it and we hose it down with water and play mud ball. It’s so messy and you have to hose off before coming in, but our two little boys love it! Just be sure to keep a cover on it and rake it before using it…..stupid stray cats!
Thank you for the chance to win!

When my kids were super little, I said we’d very get a sandbox. My kids are now alittle older, I know they can be alittle more careful. I like that it can be closed up.

I always wanted a sandbox growing up and this would probably be more fun for my son than digging in the dirt off our driveway! The water running around it is so neat and awesome too. He has all sorts of cool floaties and dig toys already.

This is a great outside toy as it has a cover and it seems if we do not cover in our yard small bugs like to find their way in (yuck).
we have talked about getting our kids a sandbox, my son’s favorite place to dig right now is all my pots… which have seeds in them.

We made a diy water table… simple wooden stand with a plastic tote inside!! The little one loves it! He could stand and splash all day if we let him! Next on the list of things to get is a sand box… this would be great!

Kids and sandboxes go together. My grandaugter would love this!

We had a built-in sandbox in our last house and the kids loved it. We moved a couple of months ago and I’ve been on the fence about whether to get another one for them. I think I’d rather have a water table, since water dries a lot more easily than sand is clean out of hair, between toes, out of diapers, etc.

We love to play outside, I have seen some really neat ideas on pinterest. I think my favorite so far is to freeze a bunch a toys in water to make a big ice block and then let your kids chip away at the ice to reveal their toys.

FOUR YEAR OLD EMILY WOULD THINK THIS IS THE COOLEST! WE COULD MAKE IT A FAMILY PROJECT TO GO TO THE BEACH TO GATHER BUCKETS OF SAND AND HAVE PICNIC AT THE SAME TIME! THE LID MAKES IT PERFECT IN WINDY, LEAF-BLOWING WEATHER TOO!

I remember playing in the classic turtle sandbox as a kid. The moat is a cool, new touch. My daughter is amazed by water. She is enthralled just watching me drink from a water bottle, so I know she would get a kick out of this.

We love to play with water. My daughter is painting with water right now on our screen and my son is shooting water with a little water shooter we got at the dollar store. We love our water table too!

I don’t have any games to share but I like this concept. It would be so much easier to make sand castles and such with the water so close at hand. My littles often get into trouble with our hoses.

We play constantly with our water table. We get these squirt toys from the Dollar Tree and fill them up and have water fights. The girls also fill them up and try and hit their Daddy when he comes by on the mower 🙂

I bought an inflatable pool last year for our porch because I was pregnant and we have zero storage or yard….bad idea, the bottom got tore up. But it’s so humid here that the water gets stagnant overnight, so it has to be emptied every night. I think I’m going to end up getting one of those water tables instead this year.

What kids doesn’t love to play with sand and water. This looks fantastic. I know our sandbox has gotten so much use. It’s time to replace.
