The sandpit is officially open



Just dropping in quickly to share this photo of Alex, the first visitor to the sandpit. Sarndra and Alex arrived yesterday afternoon for a quick visit and will be off home this morning. If I have time, I'll be back later, if not, I'll see you all tomorrow. I hope you have a lovely day.

  2. Alex is looking pleased with himself, well done Grandma and Opa... My 4 kids (2-7 yo) love the sandpit, its a time old tradition that I hope I will see my grandchildren play in - you just never know with this day and age and all the gadgets... but if their Oma (me in 20 years) hasn't anything to do with there will be a sandpit at our place too....

  7. I want to run over (to where ever you are) and plonk Jarvis in the sandpit with Alex. It looks amazing. I have asked for a saw and a drill for Christmas so I can attempt to make one. I have also asked Santa to borrow your husband for a couple of days so he can teach me how to make it.

    1. Iliska, Jarvis would happily fit in with us. I reckon there's enough room for three little boys to play in there. We're just north of you in Landsborough. I hope you build your sandpit. Don't forget to download the how to build it plan on the post. Get all your timbers cut to size, Hanno said that only cost an extra $10 at Bunnings, and then it's just a matter of screwing it all together. Good luck!

  13. You must be very proud Rhonda, of your gorgeous little grandson and the very clever Hanno! He has done an amazing job. I've made a mental note to show Daniel. We were just saying the other day how Violet keeps playing in the gravel and that she needs a sandpit. I'm not so keen on the plastic ones, and we're a bit worried about snakes with an uncovered one. Wonderful picture :)

  15. Such a beautiful picture! On an evening when the freezing rain is beating on the windows in the Great White North of Canada, to look at this makes me very happy. :)
