The Sandbox
editSandboxes are where children go to play with sand.[1]
Turtle Box
editThe turtle sand box is the classiest of all sandboxes. It shaped like a turtle, with the shell protecting the sand from the elements, pet fecal matter, and colonies of ants looking for an easy home.[2]
Hazards
editAttempting to bullying in sandboxes can end horribly if the contents of the box are used as projectile in self defense. Though relatively harmless to the skin, eyes are very sensitive to sand and its abrasive properties. Eyes will water and sting as the particles possibly scratch the cornea, leading to vision problems, pain, and blindness if thrown correctly.[3]
There have been recent connections drawn linking sandboxes with urination within clothes. Though still relatively unproven, the sound of sand particles rustling together create a soothing effect and letting the liquids flow freely. There have also been conspiracy theories linking sandboxes to criminal behavior in adults. Lee Harvey Oswald had allegedly rolled in a turtle shaped sandbox, inhaling some of the contents through straw into his nose. He later proceeded to commit the JFK assassination under the influence of sand.[4]
