Green Toys Sand Play Set, 4 Pieces
A small, sturdy recycled plastic sand set that trades piece count for durability.
We bought Elovien Beach Sand Toys Set, 24Pcs Sandbox Toys with Mesh Backpack Bag, Buckets, Molds, Shovels, Rakes, Watering Can. It's no longer documented anywhere, so this page reviews the closest well-covered match. It is a bucket, shovel, rake and mold sand set at a similar price from a well known toy maker with its own product page and published reviews, though with far fewer pieces.
The short version
- Sandbox and beach play for toddlers and preschoolers
- Families who want toys made from recycled plastic in the USA
- Parents tired of sand toys that crack in one summer
- You want many molds and tools for a group of kids
- You need a mesh bag to rinse and carry everything
- Lowest price per piece matters most
What owners like
- Much thicker and sturdier than typical dollar store sand toys
- Rope handle does not snap or pop off under a heavy load
- Pieces store inside the bucket, so the set is easy to grab and go
Common complaints
- Only four pieces at a price that buys much larger plastic sets
- No watering can, sifter or carry bag included

What it does
A four piece sand set of bucket, shovel, rake and castle mold made in the USA from recycled plastic; reviewed here in place of the Elovien 24 piece beach sand toy set it closely resembles.
- Thick walled bucket built to resist cracking
- Cotton rope handle that holds a bucket of wet sand
- Shovel and rake have a thumb nub to help push and pull
- Castle mold sized for small hands to fill, pack and flip
- All pieces nest inside the bucket for carrying
A good pick for families who want a few sturdy sand tools that last several summers rather than a big bag of thin pieces. The trade off is fewer pieces for the money, with no watering can, extra molds or carry bag.
