Purple 2 Pound Refill Pack - Moldable Indoor Play Sand in Resealable Bag

I had never played with any kind of sand like this before but I had purchased a box of 2 lbs for each of my kids for Christmas. Before Christmas someone had given my daughter the name brand kinetic sand in a very small kit as an early present, and all I could think was, oh dear God - what did I do? I could see the appeal but it was really messy and the few molds that came with the kit, the kinetic sand would get stuck in it and wasn't as workable as it looked on TV. After Christmas my kids ripped into their CoolSand, and I'm so relieved. It's what the kinetic sand should have been. Don't get me wrong, it's still messy. But my kids are messy, to be expected. But the clean up on the stuff is a lot easier, you can actually take a bit of sand to pick up other small bits of sand. It still has that fluid sort of feeling like kinetic sand, but it doesn't get stuck in the molds like the other one. And I had to play with it too to test it, I think it just feels more cool and more moldable, definitely more fun to play with. So pleased with it I just ordered another 2 pounds each kid- which was a tough call to make because I'm pretty poor right now and the stuff is pretty expensive, but the kids love it. Will keep them busy for hours, not to mention the sensory aspect since my daughter is also autistic, and I have to admit I kind of like to play with it too. I also purchased the molds for the sand in the same brand and it just really is the icing on the cake. I absolutely will not even bother trying another brand of play sand after my experience- I'm pretty certain this stuff is probably the best.

Perfect for my shadow box frame The sand stay exactly where I need it to stay Looks very real

This stuff is great! This is the first brand of foldable sand that we’ve found that isn’t obnoxiously sticky. It was super easy to play with right out of the bag. With just some light crumbling it loosened up and spring to life. We added the tiniest bit of mist from a spray bottle on top. I added a bit too much first and it got a bit sticky but then I just mixed it with the dry sand underneath and it was perfect. Simple clean up and for the first time ever, their clothes weren’t covered in the stuff afterward. I highly recommend this brand. The price and quality are far superior to the Magic Sand at Target.

Works just as well as brand name sand. Good different color options. Would give 5 starts if you got more product for the price.

I am re-writing my review because since my last review, Cool Sand has clearly made improvements!! Their kinetic sand is super soft, moldable and lots of fun to play with! Our 4 yr old son is on the Autism Spectrum, and 9 yr old daughter had sensory issues, so we like to provide both children with toys that are not only fun, but help to stimulate their senses. Cool Sand does an amazing job at providing tactile stimulation for each of our children. It also helps our youngest child calm down when he is upset, as it gives him something positive to focus on. He REALLY loves his "sand!" Thank you so much to Cool Kids Cool Sand for giving us a second chance to review their amazing, improved product. We will continue to order Cool Sand as it is a great product and a great value! I highly urge others to check out their line of products!

Product is moldable and is a fine product but it was advertised as white. The company also had similar products that were advertised as off white. So I purchased this product . The product is unfortunately an off white color. I was looking for a reusable snow substance for a winter themed preschool sensory bin.Just want other teachers to know it’s not a true white and doesn’t really work for snow themed activities. The product is a good kinetic sand.

Easy to clean up after play time , fun for everyone and although it's not alot of sand it's a lot of fun and lasts a long time. Great value for the product qaulity, thanks again jblair

This sand is a little bit courser than what you may get in a typical sand kit set, but it has now worked well for children who enjoy kinetic sand over all. Edited my response, works well, affordable, appreciate getting a larger bag of kinetic sand.

Good sand toys for preschoolers.
