[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They'll be fine! I actually was eying the sandbox at the playground today. It resembled mini beach. So many kids wanted to play there with the trucks, but not one caregiver said yes. I'm sure there is a chance of bacteria, but I'm guessing chances are slim that it will be something dangerous (especially if they are wearing clothing and you wash hands later.[/quote] Somedays, I don't let my kids play in the sandbox at the playground because I don't want sand pouring out of their pockets when we leave, especially if I have just cleaned my car or if we have somewhere else to go after the playground. It has nothing to do with bacteria. It has everything to do with dirt. So those "caregivers" may just not feel like cleaning that day. Just saying. Not everyone thinks "OMG - sandbox=flesh eating bacteria!"[/quote]
