Sand and Water Fun

Help me give my students a sand table that is sturdy and will last for years to come. Our preschool students enjoy playing with sand and so many other things in a sand table.

My Project

A new sand table would help the children explore and learn. Sand tables are a great benefit for enhancing Fine Motor skills, language development, creativity, and social skills. Kids will often work together while digging and scooping, creating awesome social and interactive opportunities for our preschoolers. The kids can work together towards a common goal such as making a sandwich castle or road. We also like to change out the sensory options for our sand table. We have had beans, rice, pom poms, snow, and water to name a few of the many options. A new table would bring such joy and happiness to all of our kids.
