Goodbye Sandy Island, Hello Dig Zone 🚧 

Mark your calendars, our NEW permanent sandy construction play area will be coming on July 18!!! 

Load sand onto vehicles, dig with tools, or use a hand-cranked conveyor belt to transport materials from one end of the “jobsite” to the other! Children experiment with cause and effect, simple machines and the physics of movement while developing problem-solving skills and engineering thinking
