DO IT YOURSELF Toddler Standing Sandbox $165 4 Hours
Toddler Standing Sandbox This is a simple weekend project with lasting benefits. This design keeps sand and stone where you want it, as well as provides a bit of storage for toys. The lid will keep everything dry when not in use. As a secondary benefit, this project can function as an outdoor coffee table. Although it is a bit tall, at 24” it can be converted to an 18” height when the little ones outgrow the sandbox by simple removing a few inches from the legs.
