Is it this sand?


I have been thinking about this for a while

The zooplus sand has reviews saying that it is very fine and i'm a little worried about that.

Yes, it's that sand.

I've never used children's play sand, so I'm unsure of how good it is. I know it does need to be baked and sifted before use, and I'm not sure whether it might not be too fine. Also, 15kg is a lot of sand to store.

I've just worked out that a 15x10cm area of 1 inch deep sand, uses about 750g of sand. You will probably want a larger area than that, so you can calculate how much sand you would need, and whether it would be worth buying it in larger quantities.
