I know I read here about people who used rice or dried beans instead of sand in their sand & water table. I have read thru old posts and can't find anything.

I just got our table but haven't put sand in yet since I wanted to know more about the alternatives and why use them.

Why not use sand? Is it messier, clumps in water, etc?

Julia doesn't put much in her mouth so I am not concerned about that.

Any info would be great! TIA~
