Moon Sand...Friend or Foe?


Everyone is familiar with Moon Sand...you know..."the moldable sand that never dries out so it can be used again and again for never-ending fun". It's tauted to clean up easily and doesn't stick or stain. Well, it has provided hours of fun for our kids, but I couldn't disagree more strongly about it being easy to clean up. If other kids are anything like mine, the sand does not stay in the tray and ends up everywhere. It is not an easy thing to clean up. The minute you try to pick it up, it falls apart. It's worse than play-doh.


I reluctantly pull the Moon Sand out when I really need a break, as both the kids can play with it for a good 30 minutes or so. So, I can't really decide if this so called Moon Sand is my friend or foe...

I'd say foe! That stuff is awful to clean. I say keep it for the summer and use it on the deck. :-)

I promptly tossed ours the first time after we played with it! We made glurch a few months ago and keep it in an airtight bowl....just played with it this morning :) You should give it a try! Recipe is on my blog :)
