Acquired taste Required Patience

Very underwhelming. I have never been a fan of kinetic sand but my daughter loves the stuff. She was very disappointed in this product. The surprise that came with the sand barely did what It was designed to Do. Made a huge mess. Save your money.

Great product!

This would make a great gift for someone as it is just a small container and would be a good addition for a child’s collection of kinetic sand. They seemed to really enjoy it and would probably buy this again, thanks to Chick Advisor, My child was able to try this for free in exchange for a review.

Tiki-Volcano Sand Surprise

My 5 year old daughter received a 4 oz container of kinetic Sand Surprise from Spin Master to try out and review. From the moment we received it in the mailbox, she has been super excited to open it up to see what her surprise will be. She got the tiki-volcano toy with red coloured kinetic sand! She really enjoyed playing with the kinetic sand, the feel of the sand in her hands and how it sticks together. She especially liked using the tiki-volcano toy to push the kinetic sand through it to create (in her own words) "french fry hair"! Lol I like that it comes in a container to store the sand and toy and how quick and easy it is to clean it all up after play since the sand is kinetic and all sticks together.

This was meh

Generally my 4yo LOVES playing with Kenetic Sand. When we were chose for this o was really excited to give it to him. Once we got it open he wasn’t sure how to use the toy we received with it. (We got the tiki toy). He was entertained for all of 2 minutes before this was it back into the container it came in.
Pros:
1. The container os big and holds the toy and sand.
2. The color and toy are a mystery so it’s exciting to open up.
Cons:
1. The sand comes in a plastic bag and just goes into the container
2. You cannot easily remove the sand from the tiki toy.
3. My 4 yo was frustrated by how hard it was to push the sand through the toy.
4. We could not remove all of the sand from the tiki toy and just had to pack it away.

It’s pretty likely he won’t use the toy again, but the container os great for storing a lot of sand.

Kinetic sand for the win

I received this item for free in exchange for a honest review. Upon opening the package the surprise was indicated on the paper attached to the lid (I saw it but it didn't ruin my son's surprise so just a warning). Once he opened it he knew exactly what it was.... A POOPING UNICORN!!!! How can one not love something that poops sand. In the lid are molds for fun shapes to feed your unicorn. Feeding those shapes can be a bit tricky. It does come with a little knife/spoon to help. Once the mouth was full he pressed down with all his might to get the sand moving. It did take a few feedings to get it out long enough to have a chuckle. You can't get it super long though because it is kinetic sand. Over all he was quite happy with the unicorn and pink sand. It's fun to play with and you have more than enough sand to play and build other things.

Kinetic sand

It was my first time using kinetic sand. Love that it is not messy. Fun to play with and make snowballs. I love that you can use it over and over. I love that is it a surprise.

Entertaining

My son absolutely loved playing with this kenetic sand. He loved making the bricks to build the wall to knock down the dragon and save the princess. It was easy for him to use and easy instructions where available.

Fun for all ages!

This product is great for all ages. I love it, my kids love it. Great for sensory play! Kinetic sand was one of the things that kept my daughter sane when she had a concussion and couldn’t do anything. Only thing i was disappointed in was the amount of sand. The container is big in comparison to the amount of sand you get. We did like the addition of the toys inside. Makes play even more fun!

Kinetic sand is the best!

So thankful we got this to try, we’ve always tried knock off brands and I’m so glad we got to try kinetic because it is soo much better quality. My daughter loves the surprise part of this toy. She has been playing with it every day since she got it. I definitely will be buying more of kinetic for her, it’s hours of entertainment!

Perfect Amount of Fun!

This is the perfect size for our little one! Not too much where it gets everywhere and not too little where it’s not enough. Texture was great and love how the colour is a surprise!
