I wanted marble so badly, but we brought a sample piece home from the warehouse and beat it up. It didn't as much as I thought it would and the etching wasn't that bad, but what surprised me most was how soft it was. We hit it with a spoon and it would leave a mark. could just see my husband ramming the cast iron skillet into the side and leaving a giant dent. Has this been an issue at all? Is it just a part of the patina for you?

I get the sand thing...but I have seen people use small stones instead like someone mentioned. It is just as fun without all the mess. I am sure it would keep if you put weed mat down and had it covered.
I was also thinking it might fun to use it as a ball pit. They sell those colorful plastic balls a lot of places now and you could even bring those inside during the winter in a little blow-up pool to get double duty out of them.
A playhouse would be cute too and they would get lots of years out of that.

Me too, the link is not working.
