Tactile Sandbox
Tactile Sandboxes are designed to encourage learning and lesson retention by providing a fun, tactile and visually stimulating experience.
In a Sandbox exercise, each student has a sandbox and is actively involved in the lesson, the teacher says a letter sound and then the student writes the letter in the sand. By doing this, the student is engaging multiple sensory pathways to the brain. Hearing the letter sound, feeling the tactile experience of writing in the sand, and seeing the letter. This sandbox exercise checks most of the boxes for learning retention.
When the lesson is complete the lid is secured using the two lid anchors and a strong rubber band: keeping the sand in the box and off the floor. The after-school staff will thank you. Tactile Sandboxes can easily be stacked several high on a classroom shelf.

Teacher 3D offers a travel sandbox with very secure lid fit, keeping the sand where it belongs, in the box and out of your carry bag. The travel lid has four anchors to better secure the lid. We recommend using two strong rubber band.
This Travel Sandbox is not designed for classroom use, our regular Tactile Sandbox works just fine.
Travel Sandboxes, when properly secured will, contain the sand in any orientation.

The dual travel lid anchors securely hold the lid on and the sand in and out of your travel bag.
As an on-the-go teacher/tutor, you spend a lot of time in your vehicle. Please do not leave any 3D teaching aids in a car, on even a warm day. A hot car can cause the print tolerances to warp. All our 3d prints are formed from recyclable corn-based PLA product. If left in a hot car the 3D prints may deform and build tolerances may warp.
