Melissa & Doug Seaside Sidekicks Sand-and-Water Sifting Funnel

Kids tired of winter? Look forward to summer or a winter getaway with this sand and water sifting funnel.

Pour dry sand or water into the top and watch different levels tip, spin, and sift. It includes a convenient handle for carrying. Until that next trip to the pool or beach, it makes a fun bath toy as well. Some commenters said cornmeal also works for indoor play. 

Melissa & Doug’s Seaside Sidekicks Sand-Water Sifting Funnel is available on Amazon for under $15.

Bonus ideas? I got my year end bonus and would like to do a nice thing for myself and my wife. The wrinkle? We have a 6-week-old, so even a date night is off the table for a good while. Thoughts? We don’t really need stuff…

Birthday presents ideas for two five year old boys that are having a joint party next weekend? My daughter doesn’t know them well so I have no idea what they like and they both just celebrated Christmas so I imagine there are lots of new toys floating around?
