I separated from my son's father back in 2009 just a month before what would be my son's fourth birthday. He actually dealt with the change really well as both his Dad and I tried hard then to keep the disruption to a minimum but as it was his birthday approaching I knew I wanted to make sure he was treated to lots of lovely things so when my mum asked what he might like for his birthday I asked her to buy him the Little Tikes turtle sandbox as I knew it would last well and be well played with. ==What is it== The Little Tikes turtle sandbox is basically a relatively large sandpit in the shape of a turtle. It is made from a tough green plastic and ...  Read the complete review

My aunt bought this sandbox for Hollie for her first Christmas, obviously we both knew that at (then) six months old it wasn't going to be used for a while but a few months later in the summer I took it out of the huge box and set it up in readiness for any interest Hollie may display. And also for Alice, who has always loved playing with these chunky plastic toys despite being eight years older than Hollie! As you can see from the piccie, this is a green turtle shaped sandpit (sandbox sounds *so* quasi-American) which comes complete with a lid to prevent your local cat population from deciding to use it as a toilet. It'll hold 70kg of sand, although ...  Read the complete review

Little Tikes Turtle Sandbox I am always amazed that children's toys can go for quite an expense in some shops, and so it is not a surprise that many turn towards Ebay or Freecycle to obtain playthings for their little ones. This particular sandbox is literally two large plastic containers and still it can go for as much as £50.00! Yes, Little Tikes products are known for their durability and safety, though for two lumps of plastic I personally feel that it is way too much! Needless to say, I looked around for a cheaper version and in the end came up trumps on Freecycle (an online site where people recycle their old things for free!). I was especially pleased ...  Read the complete review

Little tikes has been on the go for years, i remember my little brother having little tikes toys and ride on and he is now 24. My brother even had the exact sandpit when he was pre school age so i was thrilled when i seen the same sandpit for sale in toys r us. I bought the sandpit for my girls when they were around 14 moths old, i purchased some sand toys and a wheel too, the two of them would play for ages just plonked in the sandpit and dig around. I paid £49.99 for the little tikes sandpit and it seems a lot of money for a plastic sandpit but i know just how good little tikes products are so was prepared to spend that amount. The sand pit ...  Read the complete review

We've spotted this strange yellow glowing thing in the sky of late - Spring, it appears has sprung, and we've even been brave enough to venture out into the garden where our range of garden have been lying neglected during what has been a long Winter, case in point this Sandbox, which we have owned for over 2 years, it was a second birthday purchase which has been very successful. Our turtle is pink, rather than the green pictured (it also comes in blue), but is identical in all other aspects. We bought it from Toysrus, for a reasonable £30, it seems to cost anything from £40- £94 now, at the lower range it's a good buy I think, like all Little Tikes products ...  Read the complete review
