Jul 31, 2020 at 15:17 comment added Huesmann I'd consider building a double-walled box. Build the exterior box and secure to the ground (stakes?), layer with the landscape fabric, then add another box inside that. The interior box will retain the sand, the exterior box will retain and isolate the fabric.

Jul 26, 2010 at 19:32 comment added Rod Fitzsimmons Frey +1 for @Rob's statement - drainage is a must for sure. I just wanted to make sure you had thought of the delightful presents from neighbourhood pets. Because nobody told me. :)
Jul 26, 2010 at 19:20 comment added Rob Napier My experience is that a lid will keep the rain out fine, but you absolutely will forget to cover it properly at least once (especially when your daughter is 4 and can open it herself), and then getting the water out is a huge headache. Drainage is a must.

another idea
Jul 26, 2010 at 16:22 comment added Vebjorn Ljosa @Rod, I was planning to cover it in order to keep cats and other animals out, but I thought quite a bit of rain water might still get through. What do you think?
Jul 26, 2010 at 15:43 comment added Rod Fitzsimmons Frey Your concern about draining suggests it will be uncovered. Does your neighborhood have cats?
