- What age is the Mermaid Palace set for?
- It is aimed at ages 3 and up. The pieces are chunky enough for preschoolers, but the sand still needs supervision to keep it off floors and out of mouths.
- How much sand comes with it?
- The set includes shimmer Kinetic Sand along with the palace and molding tools. It is enough for one child to play, but a refill pack helps once the sand dries out.
- Does the sand dry out?
- Yes, Kinetic Sand slowly loses moisture and gets crumbly. Sealing it in a bag or container between sessions and adding a little water can bring it back for a while.
- Can it be combined with other Kinetic Sand sets?
- Yes. The sand and tools mix with other Kinetic Sand products, so it works as a starter set that grows with a collection.
- Is it easy to clean up?
- Easier than loose sand, because the sand clumps, but grains still scatter. Playing over a tray or mat and wiping hands afterward keeps the mess down.
- What is in the box?
- The palace, shimmer sand and molding tools, seven pieces in all. Check the listing for the exact tool mix, since sets vary.
- Where is the Spin Master Kinetic Sand Shimmer Mermaid Palace Playset cheapest?
- At Staples, for $45.09, as of our latest check.
