The Circular Sand and Water Tray is a versatile indoor learning and play resource designed to encourage fine motor development, hand-eye coordination, exploration and practical learning through sand and water activities. With multiple interior levels and slopes, the tray provides a range of opportunities for children to scoop, pour, transfer, mix and explore materials while developing important physical and cognitive skills.

The Circular Sand and Water Tray supports hands-on learning by allowing children to observe and experiment with concepts such as floating, sinking, weight, gravity, buoyancy and displacement. These open-ended activities encourage curiosity, problem-solving and early scientific thinking while providing opportunities for children to develop coordination, concentration and controlled hand movements.

Constructed from strong, durable plastic with a heavy-duty tubular steel frame, the Circular Sand and Water Tray is designed for regular use in early learning and educational environments. Its 75cm diameter and 58cm height provide a practical working area for children while the circular design allows multiple users to access the tray.

A water-tight screw-in plug and drainage hole make emptying and cleaning easier after water-based activities. The tray also includes a moulded plastic lid, helping keep the play area protected when not in use.

The Circular Sand and Water Tray is suitable for children aged 3 years and over and is designed for indoor use. It is ideal for early learning centres, schools, therapy environments and home learning spaces where children can benefit from practical, open-ended activities that support participation, confidence and skill development.

Why Choose This Product

The Circular Sand and Water Tray combines physical skill development with open-ended learning, making it a versatile resource for early education, therapy and home environments. Children can develop hand control and coordination while naturally exploring scientific concepts such as floating, sinking, gravity, weight and displacement.

For educators and allied health professionals, the Circular Sand and Water Tray provides opportunities to adapt activities to different developmental goals, from simple scooping and pouring through to collaborative problem-solving and early STEM learning. Its durable construction, drainage system and included lid make it practical for regular indoor use, while its accessible circular design encourages shared participation and interaction.

e Circular Sand and Water Tray is designed with multiple interior levels and slopes to allow children to explore many different activities.

Scooping and pouring water and sand helps to assist children in developing hand-eye coordination and motor skills. The learning potential from playing in sand and water is not to be underestimated with the observation and first-hand experiences of gravity, floating, sinking, buoyancy, weight, displacement and so much more. 

Constructed of strong durable plastic, with a heavy-duty steel tubular frame, this Circular Sand and Water Tray is a must have product for every childcare centre.

Features a water-tight screw-in plug and draining hole to help with easy cleaning, and comes with a plastic moulded lid.
