My son is getting one for his 1st bday next month! I'm excited. Lol they usually have a plug to drain on them.

@babynumber2ishere thank you i ain't gonna get the Sand one she would just eat the Sand lol, but good to know.

Like the above comment, drain it when finished. For the toys and detachable parts I would bring them inside and hand wash them in the sink with dish soap. And wipe out the bottom with Clorox wipes. My son LOVES his. I do not recommend the sand and water tables tho.... huge mess and pain in the ass to clean!

I never had one for my girls. But I would fill it up to let them play them drain the water once they were finished.
