I have heard hamsters (especially dwarfs) like dust baths, so I am wondering if I should get Henry a little bath house and some chinchilla sand. . Is this something that some hamsters like and others don't? Is the sand bad for them?
Oh yes, and would he like some hay?

Chinchilla sand-yes Chinchilladust-no. Dust can cause respiratory problems although most hamsters will love a sand bath! Just make sure that its sand and not dust-that's all!
It's great for hammies, just make sure it's not too dusty/powdery as ChocolateCream81 said
Some may use it as a toilet, or to groom and dig in - it also helps with keeping their nails down if they dig and clean their coats if ever greasy.
Dust baths?
