Get ready, Treasure Valley — playtime is about to get a serious upgrade. Sandbox by Hill House is a new, modern play café opening soon in Garden City, Idaho, created to inspire imagination, creativity, and connection for children of all ages.
At Sandbox, play takes center stage. From climbing, building, and pretending to digging deep in our giant sandboxes, every inch of our space is designed to spark wonder and joy — because childhood should be filled with moments that let kids explore, learn, and just be kids.
A Play Experience Like No Other
Sandbox isn’t your average play zone. Our space features massive indoor sandboxes, imaginative play zones, party rooms, and a curated gift shop full of playful finds.
Each element has been carefully designed for open-ended play that grows with your child — from sensory exploration for little ones to creative building and cooperative play for older kids (ages 0–12).
While kids play, parents and caregivers can relax nearby with coffee and good company in our elevated café — because great playtime should feel good for everyone.
Where Play Becomes Learning
At Sandbox, play and learning go hand in hand. Every space encourages children to use their imagination, experiment with ideas, and connect with others — all while developing important social, emotional, and physical skills.
Our upcoming classes and seasonal day camps will take that learning even further, offering creative experiences in art, music, and hands-on STEM play. Each activity is designed to nurture curiosity, confidence, and collaboration in a fun, low-pressure way.
Built for Community
Sandbox by Hill House is more than a place to play — it’s a place to belong. We can’t wait to host story times, workshops, and special events that bring families together and make memories that last long after the playtime ends.
Whether you live in Boise, Meridian, Eagle, or right here in Garden City, Sandbox will be a space where kids and families can learn, grow, and connect with one another.
Coming Soon to Garden City
We’re putting the finishing touches on our space and can’t wait to welcome your family soon. Keep an eye out for updates, sneak peeks, and opening announcements — we promise it’ll be worth the wait!
