Best Toy Ever

Emma’s friend Addie recently got a sand and water table to play with outside and it is just adorable. Luckily, Addie lives right next door and loves to share. So, we went and hung out with Addie and Addie’s Mom after the hospital visit, which was just the perfect way to unwind and bask in the deliciously warm sun. The girls happily buzzed and babbled at each other, the table and us, while dipping their hands in the water and letting the sand run between their fingers. The table features two halves, one containing sand, and the other a system of moats and bridges to hold the water. It’s the best! You can splash or float little boats in the water, dig your shovel through the sand, or, eat the sand, if that’s your thing. And, for those of us who live more than 400 miles from the ocean, it’s a great way to bring the beach a little closer to home. Thank you to Addie and Addie’s Mom for a terrific afternoon.
