Beach toys are a must when heading out to some sandy shores with a toddler in tow but not all sand toys are created equally. After living by the ocean for some time, I have found what sand toys are best for toddlers and what aren’t. For you, I have included my personalized list of the best beach toys for toddlers inside of this post!

Best Beach Toys for Toddlers

ForeverElla Silicone Beach Toys for Kids 

Absolutely love this silicone set of sand toys, because not only are they pretty to play with, but the bucket is collapsible making it my favorite to walk to the beach with as well as travel with on any carry-on. Not to mention, they are silicone and non-plastic. 

Ride On Sand Excavator

What’s not to love about this ride on a sand excavator? If your toddler is anything like mine, he or she loves to dig and practice their motor skills. This excavator digger is compact enough that it’s easy to keep in your trunk to take to the beach and or park. It’s fun to role-play with the hard hat and the digger rotates 360. It’s a lot of fun! 

 BLUE GINKGO Ice Cream Sand Toys

I think these silicone beach toys are just adorable! They are fun for all ages, but perfect for toddlers.

8''Heavy Duty Kids Ride-on Sand Dumper

This is a big bigger of a sand toy but if you are able to bring it along, your toddler will have so much fun!

HABA Sand Drill 

If you have a little who loves construction toys, this sand drill is the toy for them!

Sand and Water Funnel

This is a super fun sand toy that’ll keep your toddler busy and out of your hair for a while.

If your little one loves looking for cool rocks and shells, this mesh shovel is such a good find.

Paddle Ball Toss and Catch Game Set

This is such a fun game to play as a family and a bit easier so that your toddler can join in.

Reusable Water Bomb Balloons

Water balloons without the mess or environmental consequences. So fun!

Watering Can

What is a pack of sand toys without a watering can? Every toddler needs one for beach time fun!

Seashell Collecting Bag

This is such an adorable idea for toddlers and little kids obsessed with collecting seashells.

Space Summer Beach Ball

No beach day is complete without an adorable beach ball and this one takes the cake!

Paddle Ball Set

Now, this one is more for the adults but that makes the beach day fun for everyone.

Sand & Water Mill

This would be such a fun toy to get your toddler interested in the mixing of sand and water.

How to Store Beach Toys

Storing beach toys doesn’t have to be messy. I opt for a woven basket or mesh bag for my sand toy storage.

I make sure to leave the bin or mesh bag outside for a few days for the sand to totally dry and then I shake it out (easily I might add) and then store it in my garage!

This Laundry Basket + This Laundry Basket makes for the most underrated storage for larger beach items!

Mesh Bags hold a ton of toys without the sand.

I hope you found out about a few new and fun beach products and toys for your toddler from this post!
