What is a mobile play trailer?

Alex, owner of Busy Boots Play Co., smiling

Hello! I'm Alex.

I'm the owner of Busy Boots Play Co., a pediatric occupational therapist, mama to a curious 2-year-old boy, and wife to a hardworking blue-collar husband. Here at Busy Boots Play Co. I've blended therapy know-how with everyday family life to create purposeful play that helps little bodies and big imaginations grow.

I've wanted to open a business combining therapy and play for years, but couldn't figure out the way to go about it, until I had my son. He's obsessed with tractors and digging! What better sensory experience is there than digging in sand?

But sand is messy, and nobody wants to clean it up after a party. That's where Busy Boots Play Co. comes in. We bring the sensory sand experience to your event, complete with themed toys, therapeutic play elements, and kid-tested fun. When the party's over, we pack up and go. No mess, no stress, just big smiles and tired little hands.

Frequently asked questions

Still wondering about something? Call (812) 626-6768 or email Alex.

How does the Busy Boots trailer work?

Our enclosed trailer rolls up ready to play, transforming your venue into a safe, contained sandbox play space. We handle full setup and take-down, so you can relax and enjoy the fun while we do the work. Perfect for parties, daycares and community events. Stress-free play delivered to your yard!

How much space do I need?

For the initial setup, the truck and trailer are 40 to 50 feet long. Once set up, the trailer needs enough space to open the gate and safely put down the stairs or ramp at the side door.

Allow about 30 feet long by 12 feet wide of clear, level space for safe operation.

What ages can play?

We recommend 18 months and up for safe and enjoyable play. All children must be supervised by a parent or caregiver at all times while using the equipment.

Busy Boots Play Co. does not set strict age limits, because children develop at different rates and each child's readiness can vary.

How long is the rental?

Our rental options are 2 or 4 hours, with an optional additional hour as requested. If you're booking for a daycare, church or community event and need longer rental time, please message us to discuss custom options.

What happens if it rains?

We'll keep the party going your way! Choose one of these options:

  • Continue, with kids drying off once in the trailer to keep the sand from getting wet.
  • A 50% refund if severe weather means the event cannot continue.
  • A free reschedule within 6 months of the date of your event.
Do you clean the equipment and sand between parties?

Absolutely! Cleanliness and safety are our top priorities. We use a commercial grade micro mister, and we visually inspect the toys each week for damage. We sift the sand by hand after every party.

What should I know about playing in sand?
  • The sand we use is made from the feldspar rock family, meaning there are no carcinogens.
  • The sand has been tested for asbestos and contains no traces.
  • Sand is an inert material: it does not react chemically or biologically with other materials. This means bacteria cannot live in it unless it is wet or contaminated!
  • Our sand does not contain any of the Big 9 allergens, and the packaging is done in clean facilities dedicated to non-food, non-allergenic materials.

Our sand is sourced from Sandtastik, and all of the above information was provided by their website.

Is my date held when I send the form?
