2 reviews for The Sandbox Children Museum
If you are looking for something to do with your small children, The Sandbox is a nice change of pace. As the previous poster stated, there are different areas for the kids to play - the pirate ship (with pirate costumes), the real airplane cockpit (with captains uniforms and sounds), a small virtual kitchen, a room for toddlers (with two relaxing rocking chairs for mom and dad), a construction site (so the kids can bang away), an arts and craft area (complete with paints, paper, glitter, etc) and an upstairs area as well.
The price is still $6.00 per person (kids under 2 are free) and there is no discount given for age, etc, so if you have more adults then kids, it may be best to leave some adults home.
The facility has two kid friendly bathrooms (which are clean) and does not serve food. (it allows food outside on the porch)
In all, while not the largest children's museum we have been to, it is certainly a nice size for small kids and a welcome get away for an hour or two. We will return again I'm sure.
Perfect afternoon gateway for young kids (and adults who love to act like kids!). For just $6 admission fee you can escape the sun, relax and spend some quality time with your little ones.
Fun things to do at Sandbox:
* Be a pirate on The Adventure ship
* Pilot a real airplane or direct a puppet show
* Shop at the International Bazaar
* Fight dragons while rock-climbing
I've posted some cool videos and photos from our visit last month. Check it out:

Travel Tips:
1. The place is relatively small and gets crowded quickly. Best to go early morning or late in the afternoon. Sandbox is open Tue-Sat from 10 AM to 5 PM.
2. Charlie's Playhouse is perfect for babies and toddlers and has some awesome rocking chairs with your name on it!
3. There is no food served there (nor do I thing is encouraged to bring your own). Don't worry there are plenty of restaurants around. Sandbox is located near Sea Pines Circle.
Have fun!
