Begin with the simpler cards, which have just 4 or 5 pieces, and gradually move on to the more complex ones as they gain confidence.

Alternatively, they can let their creativity run wild and create their own unique castle design without following the cards at all.

This is a fantastic opportunity for your child to unleash their imagination and construct their dream sandcastle.

How to store the Cards and the Sandcastle cutouts after play?

Proper storage is essential to prevent the loss of small game pieces, and the same applies to these sandcastle cutouts.

To keep them safe and organized, I recommend storing them in letter envelopes or pouches.

This method is not only practical but also a great way to maintain organization if you have multiple activities with similar small pieces.
