1. Not just for kids, these wooden sandboxes and plastic sandboxes are perfect for adults too. Just grab a beach chair, drink, and a good book and pretend you're back at the beach. Or, be a bit more daring and hop in the sandbox with a towel and sprinkler - there's nothing like the feel of warm sand against your legs.

Perfect for creating, building, destroying, and getting dirty, you'll have plenty of time to get things done around the house while your kids play in the sandbox. Or, if you're a bit more adventurous, join them in the fun and also get the extra benefit of a spa-like exfoliation treatment without leaving your backyard.
