Product Description

Squish it. Shape it. Mold it. Moon Sand is a phenomenon that molds like dough and never dries out. It cleans up easily and won't stick or stain. Pull it out of its package and watch it expand to twice its original size! With this set, kids can build their very own adventure island. Kit unfolds to reveal a deserted island, three colors of sand, and molds to make huts, animals and boats. Includes hard plastic carrying case so you can take your adventures with you.

The idea behind this is great -and the sand really does mold pretty well. There are three colors - blue, green and yellow. There is more green than blue and yellow (not sure why). I helped guide the kids to use it over the opened plastic case - but a ton of it still managed to get on them, on the chairs and on the floor. It dusted off of them ok and didn't leave any coloring on the chairs, but if you are one who sees sand all over the place and cringes, well, maybe look for something else. I think I am going to "hide" this toy so it is out of sight, out of mind, unless they can play it outside (but then they can play with real sand). Unfortunately, I gave this as presents for two birthday parties before having first hand experience with it, and I wonder if my kids will be invited back next year. :-)

This review is from: Moon Sand Adventure Island (Toy)

Got this as a gift for our son. It is an artificial sand complete with molds and tools plus some added little toys. The sand have pretty candy colors and are very attractive. It is a lot of fun for the kids, but at the same time it is frustrating for them attempting to create critters with the molds as the sand crumbles very easily. It needs some help from grown-ups to press the mold harder to make a press. Still, once they hold them with their hands they crumbles. Obviously, not for kids who love to put things in their mouths.

It is just no way you can have this toy played inside the house especially near carpets or your couch. Be prepared for a big mess.
