Mud, Sand and Water Play

As well as being a whole lot of fun, water channel play, mixing mud potions, and building with sand are all invaluable for helping children learn to problem solve and learn the qualities of different materials

Sliding Lid Sandpit - Large

Our product code: D2-SW002-A

Our Large Sliding Lid Sandpit is a fantastic educational tool for children. It provides a fun and tactile learning environment where children can explore, dig, and create. 

By engaging with the sand, children develop fine motor skills, sensory perception, and creativity. The Sliding Lid ensures that the sand can be protected from the elements and any unwelcome visits from local wildlife.

Through unstructured play, children discover scientific concepts like volume and gravity, making it a valuable educational resource.

 

 

outdoor mud, sand, and water play equipment for schools and nurseries

In EYFS and nursery, playground sand and water play stations help children to hone their fine motor control and explore different substances. As they grow, they can use them as their first steps into science, finding out about materials which float, sink, or absorb water, as well as how to create steady structures.

in KS1 and beyond, students enjoy finding out how to create different textures and effects in mud kitchens while engaging in imaginative play. Sand and water can also be used to explore problems of volume, capacity, and how to build a leak-proof water channel.

The team at dbdplay did a fantastic job transforming our play area at the heart of the school. They managed a complicated build during term time and we are grateful for the finished product.

The only issue we have now is getting the children and families to leave at the end of the day :)

The children now love rolling down the hill.

It’s completely transformed the space.

We have had no flooding problems since the grass has been installed, even with the big storm.

“Learners stayed out here all playtime - which they do not usually do. They have been playing competitions with me”

“They enjoy exploring it so much they don’t want playtime to finish”

“It’s so much better! The children are happy and have a nice area to sit with their friends and equipment to play on”
