Pros: Sand is one of the cheapest options for playground surfaces. Sand typically costs $1.50 to $3.00 per square foot and you can usually find bulk play sand available at a local hardware store or landscaping company. At $2.00 per square foot, a 2,500 square foot playground could cost about $5,000 for sand. Hiring a professional installer will ...
