Has anyone heard of a child's "sandbox" filled with corn, a new thing ??

Question

My daughter just emailed me that my 2 year old grand daughter just received a "sandbox' filled with corn ? Is this a new thing these days ???

Answer 1

This isn't new... just smart.  I prefer rice.

Answer 2

I haven't heard of filling it with corn, but I have heard of using rice or dried beans.  The idea is that it will be less messy.  I say, let them make a mess!
