Magic sand

Magic sand

Magic sand is a sensory toy that can really bring magic into everyday life for both adults and children. There's not much that captivates children like a toy that feels a little magical, and it makes magic sand to that degree. With magic sand you have the opportunity to play with sand, even on the grayest rainy days. At the same time, magic sand is more fun to play with than regular sand because it behaves in a really fun way.

What is magic sand?

Magic sand primarily consists of ordinary fine-grained sand, which is bound together by a silicone oil called dimethicone. This oil is also the one we often see in make-up, and therefore it can tolerate coming into contact with the skin.

Magic sand is approved for children over 3 years of age and therefore contains no allergens, phthalates, BPA or perfume. Therefore, you can safely let your child play with magic sand without major worries, even though the ordinary fine-grained sand also contains silicone oil.

Fun play for children

Magic sand is fun for children to hold in their hands because it will slide out between the fingers. The magic sand feels almost alive when you hold it in your hands, which is why it can feel a bit magical, because the sand is still a unified mass as it slides out between the child's fingers. The magic sand can be very calming for your child to play with, which is why many people use it in therapeutic situations.

Magic sand calms children

The magic sand is very calming for both children and adults to sit with, which is why it is also often used for people who have difficulty finding peace. The magic sand can capture the children's attention so much that they relax completely when they sit and play with it, and therefore it is a really good activity if your child has difficulty falling down after a day in an institution where has been going on about it.

With magic sand you can create almost the same atmosphere as if you were meditating, which is why so many children are really happy with the magic sand, without knowing what effect it actually has. The magic sand is so alive that it easily slips out of your hands, while at the same time it is so sticky that it can be put back together quickly. This can be calming to sit and watch, and some children can take a very long time with it.

Many hours of fun playing with magic sand

The magic sand cannot dry out, which is why there are so many hours of fun in a pack of magic sand. It also contributes to the fact that it is a toy that was created for children, because it is not always that the children get to pack the toy away immediately, and so it is an advantage that it does not dry out for that reason.

If your child starts to get tired of just letting the sand slide out between his fingers, you can always buy new sand moulds, more sand or other fun things for the magic sand, so that the child's interest is always maintained. The sand is as close to being natural sand as possible, but the magic sand allows the children to play as in the sandbox, just inside the living room. You also don't have to worry about the child dropping some of the magic sand on the floor, because it can easily be dabbed up with another lump of the magic sand, or simply vacuumed up.

Strengthen the child's fine motor skills with magic sand

For children, magic sand helps develop fine motor skills, because this is stimulated when the child plays with magic sand. Magic sand does not contain any toxic substances, and you can therefore safely let your child play for several hours if the child wants to. With magic sand, you promote the child's fine motor development, so that your child can have the best prerequisites for good motor skills.

The child gets to train his fine motor skills by playing with the magic sand, while at the same time stimulating his senses. When the child feels and plays with the magic sand, the child's sense of touch develops in particular. At the same time, the child's ability to concentrate is also strengthened when your child plays with magic sand, because the child can sit for a long time and concentrate on playing with the sand, while the child is having fun.

Fun games with magic sand

There are almost no limits to what your child can play with the magic sand, which also means that your child learns to think creatively, and thus develops his imagination a lot. The child can, among other things, build different figures from magic sand, using sand moulds, just like when the child plays with ordinary sand on the beach or in the sandbox. The only difference is that when you push the figure in the slightest or cut into the sand, you will see that it runs apart and becomes flat again.

With magic sand, the only limit to what your child can play with is the imagination. Your child can play with the sand, squeeze it and it will hold its shape just like wet sand would. With magic sand, your child can use buckets, shovels or rakes, just like in the regular sandbox, and your child is guaranteed to have a lot of fun because magic sand behaves in a different way than normal sand does.

A magical world

The child can include some of his other toys in the play with the magic sand, and therefore the child can build small castles for small figures, sand figures with sand molds or roads on which the toy cars can drive. Therefore, magic sand can help make any other play magical, and your child will get a lot of fun out of it.

When your child picks up the sand in his hand, it will run down in a funny way, a bit like the popular slime, but without the slime feeling. The absolutely magical thing about magic sand is that it sticks very much to itself, but it doesn't stick to anything else at all. Therefore, your child can also safely include some of his other toys in the play with magic sand.

Play with sand without getting dirty

One of the really smart things about magic sand is that your child can play with sand without getting dirty. That's why it's also an easy game to put the child to, without you having to spend several hours cleaning up and washing clothes, because your child doesn't get dirty at all from playing with magic sand. Your child thus gets the opportunity to be creative and let his imagination run wild, without getting dirty.

Strengthen the senses with magic sand

When children play with magic sand there is an enormous amount of stimulation, because it feels fun and different for the children when they have the magic sand in their hands. Magic sand is very good for stimulating the child's sense of touch, because the child is allowed to play with something that the child has not felt before. Therefore, magic sand is perfect for making your children sit still and concentrate, while at the same time having fun and strengthening their senses.

Children with special needs
