We want to make a sandpit for Piper, and even Ayrton to play in and have managed to find an old tractor tyre through Freecycle that we just need to go and collect from a smallholding about 15 minutes drive away.

We are going to sink the tyre slightly into the lawn in the back garden and then fill it with sand.

I found a couple of good links to ideas for sandpits:
