The Biggest Sandcastle

At golden dusk in Maple Park, Sam has one big plan: to build the BIGGEST sandcastle in the whole park, all by himself. He scoops and packs and stacks the towers higher and higher — but the third one wobbles, and the whole side slides down in a heap. Sam slumps in the sandy mess, sure a castle this big can never be built alone. So what happens when Riley and Jamie wander over? Find out in the full story on MoonNest.

A wide view of Maple Park sandbox at warm golden dusk — sand buckets and shovels in the warm sand, a wooden slide and swings and a big leafy tree in the background, with the first star and a gentle moon rising.

As the sky turned gold and the first star blinked awake, Maple Park was full of play. In the warm sandbox, little buckets and shovels waited, and the sand smelled of summer and sun.

Sam, a boy in a red-orange hoodie, stands proudly in the sandbox planting a small flag with a big confident smile, while Riley and Jamie play nearby in the background.

Sam had a big, big plan. I'm going to build the BIGGEST sandcastle in the whole park — all by myself! he declared, planting his flag in the sand.
