Forget the Sandbox

After some thinking and reading, I've decided that I'd rather not keep the sandbox in our back yard. Once in a while, I'll let him play in the sand at the local parks or beaches, but as far as sand for our own sand box, it's either $60 for 50lbs of Safe Sand or nothing. I realize many, many kids grow up to be fine after spending their childhood in and around "unsafe" play sand, but as with most things I do for my son, if there's a safer alternative available, I'd rather be safe.
