DINOSAURS come to Moonsand!

A leading online moon sand site launched a T-Rex Moon Sand Kit today. A 5 pound starter set with Dinosaur Mold for $29.95 including an extra large inflatable sand box. A great deal considering the exact same mold is sold between $15-20 across the web!

How to use Moon Sand

Moonsand is ready for use right out of the bag. There is no preparation involved and it will never dry out. As soon as you have opened the bag begin squishing, shaping, molding moon sand any way you desire.

Moon Sand can be used for school projects, experimentations, molding, shaping, and sculpting. As mentioned in an earlier blog post, Moonsand can be baked to maintain the forms you create with it.

Moon Sand can be painted. Just coat your creation in Moon Sand Fix wait for it to dry and paint away.

MoonSand Glitter!

Exciting new products always come out for Christmas, Glitter Moon Sand seems to be one this year. The 3 color pack is available in most stores at $7.99 for three 2.5 ounce cups.....Nearly $8 for less then 1/2 pound of moon sand sure seems extreme...even if it is "sparkly".

I then did a quick google search and found Moon Sand Glitter in a two pack for $3.95. I emailed the site and they said their glitter pack weigh over a pound and is the same moon sand in stores for 1/2 the price. Then I asked about why they don't have "Glittering Green" and they said it is on order and the 3 pack will still be under $5.

Amazing.

Three times as much of this hot Christmas gift for half the price. Moon Sand is the best!

Moon Sand Castle Kit

Moon Sand Castle Kits are the most commonly sold type of moon sand kit.

The original retail store bought moon sand castle kits had 4 molds and a bridge with 8 ounces of moon sand for $29.99.

Online Wholesale Castle kits normally come with the 8 piece castle mold set pictured and x16 more moonsand for less then $30. Get more for money!

Moon Sand Color Party Pack

The Moon Sand Color Party Pack is a great idea. Six moonsand colors for $12.99 at most stores. The one BIG problem is that you only get 1.6 oz. of each color. That means you have a total of 9.2 ounces of moon sand combined...that is barely 1/2 of a pound!

Compare that to $3.95 per pound at moonsandkits.com and you can see that if y6ou want to have a moon sand party, there is only one place to buyy your moon sand.

Moon Sand Bucket

Moon Sand Refills now actually are coming in decent sizes. Amazon is selling a 7.5 pound moon sand bucket for $35.95. Too bad it only comes in one color scheme.

However it is still much cheaper to buy TWO 5 pound moon sand refills for $14.95 on ebay or at moon sand kits online. Buying 5lb bags also gives you additional color scheme options.

Moon Sand Art

Moon Sand began as a simple idea to produce a product that acts like wet beach sand without all the mess. Moonsand has now been transformed into a new sculpting medium that rivals all other materials on the art market for both the serious artist and the child at heart.




Just look at the Moon Sand Pirate Castle and made using the Moon Sand Brickmaker.

Moon Sand is ready to use from the bag and is easily reusable. The many techniques on fixating, painting, baking, molding and still be able to reuse the material has opened up a world of possibilities to anyone who seek the challenge of creating a personal piece of art. “The sand that never dries out” has become a powerful creative material for artists of all ages.

Moon Sand Cleaning and Sterilization

One of the drawbacks to clay, play-doh, floam and other similar childrens toys is that they become incubators of germs. This is especially true in school settings where multiple children use the same product day to day. Heading into flu season this is the last thing we want any of our children exposed to.

Moon sand solves this problem by easily being sanitized. Just put a 1/3 Hydrogen Peroxide 2/3 water mixture in a water bottle. Spread the sand evenly in the tray. Spray the sand with the mixture and allow it to sit over night to dry.

This allows parents to take comfort in knowing their children are playing with a safe, clean toy. This also makes Moonsand ideal for children's hospitals.

Is MoonSand the Safest Toy avaliable?

MoonSand is quite possibly the safest children's toy or arts & craft on the market. Produced in Sweden, moon sand, is made from carefully chosen raw materials. Moonsand is also a gluten-free and allergy-free toy, meaning unlike play-dough or some clays children to gluten will not have a problem with Moon Sand. With 10 colors (5 original pictured, 5 new moon sand colors) your child will never get bored.
