Editorial Review

This cute, red plastic ladybug isn't going to fly away home because she's really a two-piece junior sandbox. And, you're going to put a couple of 50-pound bags of sand in her. But that's okay; she's just the right size for the kind of beach-kid who is very interested in eating the grainy stuff. She's 34 inches in diameter, 6 inches deep, and has a raised leaf design on the bottom. Her shell is decorated with a central groove and three pairs of dots, and is connected to the base with a black plastic tether. Big black, green, and white eyes (and a little red nose) give her a winsome expression. --Richard Farr

5.0 out of 5 stars Little ladybug sandbox, April 1, 2004

I noticed that this ladybug sand box only had 3&1/2 stars and the others all had 5. I felt a need to speak up. We bought this sandbox for our first son when he was three. We lived in an apartment with a small back patio. It was perfect, not too big but still room for a toddler or two to sit in it and play. He played for hours!! Now 5 years later, his little brother loves it and my first son, almost 9, still plays with the little one in it. It still looks brand new, nestled under the tree in our big back yard. It's really great just smaller than the others. We have since given this for every two year old birthday present we've bought! I highly recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Durable Sandbox!, May 24, 2004

We have had this sandbox for five years. It has been durable and my two kids ages 3 and 5 just love it. Color of the plastic is still bright and has been under sun for years. Sometimes water seeps in when it rains but this makes sand play even funner for kids. We tend to put a rock on top of lid to keep it in place though it does cover the box perfectly. It is also nice that the lid is attached to the box itself and is easy for kids to remove and put back on when done. The kids usually sit outside of it though it can accomodate 1-2 small kids inside it as well. I find most kids dont want to get sand all over and end up sitting outside of it regardless. Overall good investment and the kids love it.

We got this for our son when he was 18 months old and it was the perfect size for him. He absolutely loved this sandbox (using the ladybugs head as a seat) He never got bored of it and still used it two years later. It is VERY durable and after two years of use looks brand new after spraying it down with a hose. Some of these sand boxes are so big and hard to move (to mow or keep your grass from dying)But this is the perfect size. A bigger kid couldn't sit in it very comfortably but could still have just as much fun sitting beside it to play with the sand.
