Beach games and toys for sandy-day fun

Keeping the whole crew entertained is easy when you have the latest beach toys and games packed and ready to go. Babies, toddlers, kids and adults will all find something fun, with so many activities to bring along on your next beach or pool day. There are even water toys you can enjoy in your own backyard to keep the fun going at home.

Something for every age and play style

The best beach days are the ones when everyone has something to do. While the kids dig, throw, splash and build with their new beach games and sand toys; you can sit back and relax on your favourite beach chair.

Bucket and spade sets for sandcastles

Big or small, kids love a bucket and spade. All you need to do is apply sunscreen and they’ll do the rest, digging and building their own kingdom of sand. They can shovel, rake, scoop, water and stack with different beach sets to keep things interesting.

Beach games for groups and families

Kids bringing their friends? With a boot full of kids’ beach toys, everyone can stay busy and have fun for hours. Just bring the esky, load it up with drinks and snacks, and everyone will be happy, fed and entertained for the full day.

Water toys for the shallows

The beach is a great place to practise diving, swimming and just splashing about. Dive toys, beach balls and other water toys help make it fun, so the kids are learning without even realising it. They even work in the pool so they can practice at home.

What are the best beach toys for toddlers?

Buckets, spades, sand moulds, watering cans and small beach balls are some of the best sand toys for toddlers. They should be simple and lightweight, so they’re easy for little hands to hold and use.

How do I clean sand off beach toys?
