Good afternoon, dear subscribers of the site Stroy-Shkola.ru. Today we will analyze the construction of the sandbox for our beloved fidgets, but about everything in order. So, let's begin.
Agree that it is very comfortable when the whole family gathers at the dacha on weekends and enjoys a comfortable family environment far from the city noise. But if you do not need a lot of comfort for adults, someone a comfortable soft sofa, someone a hammock in the open air or a pleasant time in a comfortable gazebo, then the children need to play and have fun , and not sit bored after reading the book in a beautiful sunnyday. The solution for this is the production of a sandbox at our dacha.
Make a sandbox for giving your own hands
Making a simple square sandbox made of wood
In order to make a simple sandbox, we need wooden bars in the number of 4 pieces. The width of the bars should be from 30-50 cm, depending on how much sand you want to fall asleep in our sandbox. Sometimes it's worth asking the children if they want to dig tunnels or just settle for the manufacture of watchtowers that are made from small children's buckets.
Wooden boards for making the sandbox skeleton
The next step is to fasten our boards into a single frame for the sandbox. Here it is worth noting that the frame in any case should not be fastened with nails, because children like to sit on the boards and eventually they will begin to diverge, so fasten the frame as safely as possible.
So, when the frame is half ready, we start making places for our children's sitting. It is best that they are on the edges of the wooden frame. They are also impregnated with an antiseptic for wood.
The seats are made from 4 boards 12 cm in width and 90 cm in length, we fix the saddles with screws to the frame of the sandbox with the help of screws.
Making the seats in the sandbox
After the frame is completely ready to start making the cover for the sandbox, it is necessary in order to protect the sand from uninvited guests: cats, dogs, etc. Who will try in every way to oblyuchovat our building, going into it in the toilet. Speaking of the toilet, you can see the drawing of the toilet on our website.
In addition, the sandbox cover will be useful to protect the sand from crumbling, remember in childhood sandboxes with soft sand were more popular with sandboxes with sand that was already stale and hardened.
For the manufacture of the lid we will need wooden bars, similar to the ones we used to create a saddle.
Sandbox cover
The next step is divided into two types:
- If, you install a sandbox in the ground, then dig out a small patch and set the frame there. Then pour the sand.
- Mounting the frame on the wheels. If, you make a mobile sandbox, then to the bottom of the frame, screw the roller wheels - this will move our sandbox around the site.
The resulting wooden sandbox
This completes the process of creating a wooden sandbox, now you can paint our skeleton.
We paint the frame
Then we paint the lid and enjoy the result, which we made with our own hands.

Sandbox for the boy - option 2
This version of the sandbox, we specifically called the boy! Why for boys? .When we say a sandbox for boys, we remember our childhood, namely, battles using watchtowers, soldiers, fortress defense, roads, tunnels and other objects that we created to model a small state in the field of our sandbox.
Therefore, this version of our construction we will do with an abundance of different buildings that will enthrall our fidgets.
Sandbox for the boy
You can make such a beautiful sandbox with a little imagination and creativity. As for the technology of building such a sandbox with their own hands, , then it can be made from wooden pegs, which are consistently installed in the excavated trench and fixed with cement filling.
By the way before building it is desirable to draw a layout drawing. It is best to do this with your children, in the process of drawing a joint layout - you will learn their needs and wishes, accordingly in the future you will be able to take them into account and implement them.
