Build a sandbox in your own yard.
A sandbox is a little slice of heaven in the backyard for both parents and kids. Kids can occupy themselves for hours making castles and running their toy trucks through the sand while mom and dad get a little yard work done. Maybe you can even put your feet up and drink some iced tea while they play. Building a sandbox is a straightforward task. Your kids can be happily digging away by the afternoon.
Instructions
1. Cut four pieces of PVC with a circular saw, trimming to match the dimensions that you want for your sandbox. Attach the four pieces together with elbow joints to form a square. Repeat four more times to create five total squares.
2. Shovel out a four inch deep trench to match the dimensions of your PVC squares.
3. Insert one of the PVC squares into the trench. Press it into the trench so it is resting solidly on the ground.
4. Apply construction adhesive along the top of the pipes that are in the ground. Set a PVC square on top of the first square. Continue layering the pipes in this manner until all five PVC squares are glued together and placed in the trench. Let the adhesive dry for two hours.
5. Fill the sandbox with play sand.
