Integrating a sandpit in the garden – 14 creative ideas<\/strong><\/h1>\n

What should not be missing in any garden? Of course, a sandbox! This does not have to be elaborately designed. You can simply create a sand pit and then surround it with stones. Simple, but practical, because you don’t have to trim any edges with scissors when mowingthe lawn.<\/p>\n

Instead of stones, the sandpit can also be framed with wood.\u00a0Many creative forms can be conjured up with it.\u00a0By the way: If the sandpit becomes redundant at some point, you can create a rock garden from it.\u00a0You can find out<\/span>\u00a0how to do\u00a0<\/span>this here<\/span>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

But a sandpit can not only be conjured up from a tractor tire.\u00a0For example, if you still have a small, old wooden boat standing around, you can also use it to conjure up a sandpit for the little ones.\u00a0Simply paint in colors, fill in sand, done!<\/p>\n

If you only have a small garden, you are best advised with a plastic sandpit.\u00a0If you need space, you can simply empty the sand and stow the sandpit.\u00a0Best of all, you don’t have to set up the sandpit.\u00a0It is also easy to clean and can also be used as a paddling pool.<\/p>\n

Kunststoff-Sandk\u00e4sten sind aber nicht nur etwas f\u00fcr kleine G\u00e4rten. Wer nur einen\u00a0Balkon\u00a0oder eine Terrasse besitzt, ist mit so einem Modell auch sehr gut beraten. Sie gibt es in den unterschiedlichsten Gr\u00f6\u00dfen, Formen und Farben zu kaufen. Besonders beliebt ist z.B. die Sandmuschel, da sie Sandkasten und Planschbecken in einem ist.<\/p>\n
