Sandpit owners help needed!

Hi,

Anyone out there with a sandpit who can help me? We have this sandpit

www.tptoys.com/Outdoor-Toys/Sandpits/Boat-Sandpit-Playlid/TP947

and I'm trying to work out how much sand I need. Sand is sold in 15kg bags.

I'm really struggling to work this out, and I don't want to end up with lots and lots of spare sand!

We have that one too, I think I just put one bag in to start with. It's not mega full. Be warned that they will enjoy taking sand out of the sandpit and distributing it round the garden so you will need to top up...

Oh, really? I'm glad you replied, I was thinking I would need about 10 bags!

So 3 should be ample then.

We have that one. I think I ended up putting in 2.5 bags! Out of interest, does your lid actually fit? Ours never really did and we always have to put a brick on it to keep it on :( Otherwise though we really like it.

It does fit, although it rests rather than clips on. Might have to weigh it down or I'll be buying more sand if the cats get in.
