Toys and Games Reviews of Spinmaster Moon Sand Castle Play Set
Customer Review: Lots of Fun
Summary: 5 Stars
I am an educator and I absolutely love watching my students play with their moon sand. The children have so much fun! My rule for the moon sand is that they have to keep the sand in the blow-up container; if they don't they have to leave the center. Even my non-verbal three year olds can follow the rule, and enjoy playing in the moon sand. So, for those of you that think moon sand is too messy-----set some rules! I bought moon sand for my son for Christmas because he always wanted to play in it after school. The same rule applies at home and he does great too. I have no moon sand to get out of the carpet or floor. The moon sand is smooth, and not gritty and messy like real sand. It wipes off your hands really easy.
ENJOY your moon sand.
Customer Review: MISLEADING!!
Summary: 1 Stars
Clean? Neat? Easy? These are the words used to promote this product. But there's nothing clean and neat about it! No way around it...it's sand...and it gets EVERYWHERE! Even if you have the inflatable sandbox. It sticks to their hands, their clothes and their hair. And if you drop it on the floor, it will not vacuum up w/the dustbuster! It is fun (as sand is always fun for kids), but it is NOT clean, NOT neat and NOT easy.
They make it seem that it is magic play-doh like sand...that once it's squished a bit, it gets moldable and clay-like. Don't be fooled...it just stays...sand-like. And unlike playdoh, if you mix the colors - there's NO going back!
Unless u're willing to take it OUTSIDE...I wouldn't bother.
Customer Review: Moon Sand not better then playdough!
Summary: 2 Stars
I got this Moon Sand for my kids for Christmas and I gave it to them as an early Christmas gift. Boy was that a mistake! It was more of an heasdach then playdough has ever been. The sand was EVERYWHERE! and yes you may be able to vacume it up but we lost 1/4 of the sand in the first play. Playdough you make sure there in the kitchen so when it falls it's no big deal, you pick up the big peices droped add them back to the mix, moon sand goes everywhere and aside from the fact that it doesn't come with very much sand to begin with so of course you need to buy more which works well for the manufacture because they have a continuing customer. Once this is done I will be happy to show it the garbage and save me another headach.Customer Review: moonsand, a blast for everyone
Summary: 5 Stars
A very cool toy, it allows for hours of entertainment, building, and just plain tactile fun. Every adult who has come over while my kids (2, 4, 8) have played with it, LOVES to join in because it just feels so cool, a little like clay, a little like sand--like waxy sand. The only draw back, is it does take some time to clean up, but with any art experience, if you go into it knowing that you need to supervise and clean up (vacuum), you won't be disappointed! All my kids just love it. We have had no problem with the molds, and also use our play-dough molds and tools. You can buy colored packs of sand to add to the basic kit. More often than not, hands are the best tools for building volcanos and burying Lego guys!Customer Review: A new spin on a classic?

Thanks but I'll keep the Playdough! This product is beyond messy. Just like beach sand it gets EVERYWHERE but unlike beach sand it never dries out so you can't just sweep it or vacuum it up. We banished it to the backporch and ACK! even worse.
The price of this product is very high when you consider that you will have to buy refills. The stuff may not dry out but because it goes everywhere after a few play sessions you have to buy refills. That gets VERY expensive. Also, the playmat we received with our kit that cost 30 dollars wasn't big enough for two kids to play with and believe me you do not want to use this without the mat.
Bottom line - stick to playdough. There is a reason why it's a classic!
