Magic sand, advice required.

[Scramble]

DD loves it and facinated by the way it comes out dry, but it tends to sit on the surface, I suppose it is all to do with surface tension and all that, I tried a little bit of washing up liquid to break the surface tensin but it didn't work. Plus the it bottle has a nozzle to go under the water, but no matte how hard I squeeze it doesn't come out under water.

Help please, oh and it has formed a gritty mess all over the kitchen .

Bump
some othe mug must ahve bought it.

Sorry I can't help. I bought this for my DS's for Christmas, but at the last minute decided it looked like nothing but trouble and sent it to another child's birthday party . Am I a terrible person? Sounds like it was a good decesion for me .

I'd ask his mum, but then I'd have to admit to what I'd done and it sounds like she might hate me already. Hope someone can help.

lol

Is the water too deep? DS had some of this a couple of years ago - we didn't put the nozzle of the bottle under the water, just over the surface and it made piles of sand.

I know what you mean about the gritty mess - absolute nightmare, when he had finished playing with it I used to put a load of kitchen roll on the draining board and scoop the sand out of the water onto it.

Will try to thing of anything else that may help.

perpetualworrier - LOL wish I'd had your insight!!
