About this product
A hippo that holds sand, water or play balls. The lid lifts off to reveal space for sensory play and clicks back on when they're done exploring. It's shaped like a hippo so it sits in the garden as something to spot and play with. Suitable for ages 12 months and up with adult supervision. Made from plastic for outdoor use.
The lid protects the contents when not in use. Fill it with sand for digging, water for splashing, or play balls for scooping. There's room to sit or stand beside it while they explore. Designed for outdoor garden play with direct adult supervision. Made from polypropylene.

Customers Say
A popular, fun-sized sandpit with a cute hippo design, ideal for toddlers. Sturdy plastic and waterproof lid praised, but the lid is often flimsy and blows off in wind, requiring weights or tape.

Puppy sandpit for us!
Bought this for the puppy as she's taken to digging. She uses it regularly so it was worth it, and hopefully it will help save my garden a bit. Brilliant that it has a lid. Will get a bungee strap to keep lid on in all weathers. Shame hippo eyes are just stickers as won't last long.

Lovely colour and a great shape for 1
I bought this for my granddaughters birthday and she loves it. Lovlrly colour and a great shape for 1 but not so shape friendly if you gave more than 1 child which wasn’t so good for her brother!

Great for the price!
Perfect for the kids through summer, nice thick durable plastic so less chance of cracking. Only problem is the lid does “click” on so the dog can just knock it off with his nose.
