Frequently asked about this product
Why write in sand rather than on paper?
Tracing a letter in sand adds a tactile channel to a task that is otherwise purely visual, and the trace can be erased with one sweep so a child retries without the discouragement of a crossed-out page. It is the standard multisensory approach in Montessori and structured-literacy classrooms for exactly that reason.
What comes with the tray, and can the cards be customised?
A wooden tray with a smooth rim sized for small hands, plus the prompt card deck. The card content, illustration and language are print changes, so the same tray supports a phonics deck, a sight-word deck or a numerals deck without any tooling change.
What safety testing applies to the wooden components?
Solid wood parts are finished with water-based, non-toxic paint and tested to EN71-3 for element migration and EN71-1 for mechanical and physical properties, including sharp edges, sharp points and small parts. For the US we cite ASTM F963-17 and CPSIA Section 101 for total lead in the coating. Moisture content is controlled at incoming material so the wood does not warp or split in transit.
What is the minimum order quantity, and can I get a sample first?
The laser paths and milling setup for this wooden line already exist, so the minimum is moderate and driven by machine time rather than tooling. Samples ship within about a week. Changing the engraved content — letters, numerals, layout — is a laser-path change and adds no tooling cost.
