Sand art - outside a bottle.

Most of the time when you hear the term sand art, you think of those little bottles that you make with the different layers of colored sand. I've also participated in craft times where you add pipe cleaner and eyes to create your own little "sand alien". You spend quiet a bit of time perfecting each layer to resemble some sort of alien landscape, only to have it all mixed together after two or three quick shakes by a younger sibling or mean friend. I have had my share of "cool sand art".

While at Youth Specialties this weekend I witnessed a form of of Sand Art that was breathtaking. Enjoy the next few minutes as Joe Castillo tells the story of the prodigal son using sand.
