Smile How can I make a good sand bath?

Simba loves he's sand bath, but at the min he's sand is in a bowl and he keeps kicking it everywhere. I would like to do a DIY box or something for him to have he's sand bath and keep the sand in it lol.
Any ideas plz.

Glass cookie jars on their side look to be good - I've seen a few people on here use them

I use an old tupperware container. Its shallow enough and yet deep enough at the same time, and perfectly sized for my Syrians.

I used to use an empty carte d'or tub for my Syrian. My hybrid has a glass jar from ikea, he can kick all he likes then, it stays in the jar

I found some hand made pottery bowls at our local thrift shop. The sides are steep enough that the sand bounces back into the bowl. Thrift shops are fantastic for finding little odd things Keep an open mind when you go searching!
