The Whitney Brothers Whitney Plus Two Tub Sand & Water Table is a dual-tub sensory table from Whitney Brothers' premium Whitney Plus Collection, giving children access to sand and water activities simultaneously in a single, classroom-grade piece of furniture - available across North America. Two separate 12-gallon tubs sit side by side on the same table. Fill one with sand and one with water. Both activities are available at the same time, to the same group, without any reconfiguration.

The tubs are moulded from industrial-grade polymers that meet all FDA standards. Each tub comes with a solid birch cover that removes completely and stores underneath the table during play, leaving the tubs fully open. The tubs sit slightly elevated within the table structure - enough that they can be lifted out by hand when it is time to clean or change the sensory material. The water tub includes a drain spigot for straightforward emptying without lifting. The table surface itself is 1" thick, finished in kitchen-quality high-pressure maple (HPL) laminate - the same surface standard used in commercial kitchen worktops - which resists scratches and withstands the water, sand, and general classroom wear that a sensory table is exposed to daily.

The table is certified antimicrobial - confirmed on the manufacturer's own page - making it appropriate for childcare settings where surface hygiene standards are actively monitored. Heavy-duty lockable casters make the table easy to roll between rooms or activity areas and lock firmly in place during use. Ships fully assembled in one box.

Key Features of the Whitney Brothers Whitney Plus Two Tub Sand & Water Table

• Two 12-Gallon Simultaneous-Use Tubs - Two separate 12-gallon tubs sit on the same table, allowing sand and water (or any two different sensory materials) to be available to children at the same time, without any table reconfiguration.
• Industrial-Grade FDA-Approved Polymer Tubs - Both tubs are moulded from industrial-grade polymers that meet all FDA standards, confirming material safety for children's direct contact use.
• Drain Spigot on Water Tub - The designated water tub includes a drain spigot for easy, no-lift emptying at the end of a session.
• Two Solid Birch Covers Included - Store Underneath - Each tub comes with its own solid birch cover. Covers remove completely and store on the shelf underneath the table during play, keeping the tub contents protected when the table is not in use.
• Tubs Elevated for Easy Hand Removal - Both tubs sit slightly elevated within the table frame, allowing them to be lifted out by hand for cleaning, filling, or changing the sensory material.
• 1" Thick HPL Maple Laminate Table Surface - The table surface is finished in kitchen-quality high-pressure maple (HPL) laminate, the same surface standard used in commercial foodservice and kitchen environments, resisting scratches and withstanding rigorous daily use.
• Certified Antimicrobial - The Whitney Plus Two Tub Sand & Water Table is certified antimicrobial, confirmed on the manufacturer's page, making it appropriate for childcare settings and Head Start facilities with hygiene compliance requirements.
• Heavy-Duty Lockable Casters - Four heavy-duty lockable casters allow the table to be moved easily between classrooms, activity areas, or storage, and lock firmly in place during use for stability.
• Extra-Thick Construction - Whitney Plus Collection - The extra-thick birch plywood construction is part of the Whitney Plus Collection premium standard, which uses dowel and rabbeted joints with 3M epoxy adhesive for superior structural strength.
• Ships Fully Assembled - 1 Box - Arrives fully assembled in a single box, ready to fill and use.
• GREENGUARD Gold Certified - Meets the most stringent indoor air quality certification for chemical emissions.

Skills and Benefits of the Whitney Brothers Whitney Plus Two Tub Sand & Water Table

• Sensory Exploration and Sensory Integration - Sand and water provide two of the most rich and complementary tactile sensory experiences available to young children. Having both available simultaneously allows children to move between light, granular, dry input and cool, fluid, wet input, supporting sensory regulation and sensory integration.
• Fine Motor Skills - Scooping, pouring, filling, transferring between tubs, and manipulating objects in sand and water develops fine motor coordination, hand strength, and bilateral hand use in a naturally motivating, open-ended context.
• Cognitive Development and Early STEM - Observing what floats and sinks, comparing the weight and flow of sand versus water, measuring and estimating volume, and exploring cause and effect through pouring and splashing introduces early physics, maths, and scientific thinking in hands-on form.
• Imaginative and Creative Play - Sand and water invite open-ended narrative play - building sandcastles, creating rivers and channels, pretend cooking, and constructing small-world scenes - supporting imaginative thinking and creative expression.
• Social Interaction and Collaborative Play - The dual-tub design accommodates multiple children playing simultaneously at the same table, naturally developing parallel play, turn-taking, communication, and cooperative activity.
• Focus and Sustained Attention - The tactile richness of sand and water naturally holds children's attention over extended periods, supporting focus development and sustained engagement in a low-structure, exploratory format.
