As above really, can anyone recommend something suitable. I'm looking at the ELC one but unsure if there's something better or a better suggestion for sensory play. Thank you!

For anything you want to use for sand, a lid is vital, otherwise the local cats think you've just added a new litter tray just for them Envy not envy.

We used an underbed storage box which worked well when they were small, followed by a little tykes turtle sand pit. Not my favourite thing to loom at but it kept them busy for hours and the kids did a good job keeping out the cats.

For water play we tended to use the old baby bath, till they were a bit bigger and we got an inflatable paddling pool.

The tough spot trays are really good to, as they are shallow enough to play in easily. Also sold to builders for mixing concrete, where they tend to be a bit cheaper. My youngest is 13 and ours is still in regular use to try and control the Lego spread.
