Let the Sand Be Your Canvas with American Plastic Toys #Partner

Here in my little city, we boast an insane number of parks for our size. 27, to be exact. Or was it 25? Hmm. Well, either way, for a city of about 50,000 residents, we've got an enviable number of parks. Maybe that's why nowhere else has never felt like home to me. My city is family friendly, and still has that much coveted small town feel. 

Anyway, the other day, Sophie and Xander wanted to play in the sand. They do have a sandbox, but I have to put new, fresh sand in it for the season. No worries, though, since we have quite a few parks with sand features for the kids to play in. 

We packed them up, grabbed our American Plastics 20 piece Deluxe Beach Basket and Seashell Roller, and headed to one of our favorite parks.  

Fun Fact: This park is right down the street from my childhood home, and is one that I played at very often when I was a child. I absolutely love that my kids get to enjoy the same parks that I did when I was young! 

This handy, stackable beach basket has everything! The set includes a lid which doubles as a sieve. The roomy basket holds a pail, two boats, three hand tools, three castle molds, three large sand shapes, four medium sand shapes, a large character shovel, and a sprinkling can. 

The kids love the variety included in this handy set. There's quite literally everything you need to spend a day making sand creations at the beach or in the sandbox. Everything. There are molds, buckets, a watering can, castle parts, and so much more. All the pieces can be easily stored and transported in the colorful basket. 

We are also completely wild about the oh-so-creative Seashell Roller. This long, wooden-handled, ocean-themed roller is sturdy and perfect for a day of fun at the beach. Simply press and roll it over damp sand to make imprints of starfish, crabs and sea shells!

This is something that is so simple, yet keeps my kids soooooo engaged. They love seeing that fun borders and artwork they can create in the sand!
