The mum revealed that she put the tent up in her garden and then filled it with sand.
Her daughters then had a spot out of the sun to play in all day.
Not only does it keep the kids busy for hours, but it also ensures you won't get sand all over the home or garden.
To top it off, the mum added cinnamon sticks into the sand to deter ants from getting in as they hate the smell.

She wrote: "You and your kids are gonna love this hack for the summer.
"I hate it when it rains and the sand is soaking wet for days or mr fox and cat pay a visit to our kids' sand pits.
"Doing this means the kids can still enjoy their sandpit when it rains. You can get a tent for around £20 and it’s going to last the whole of summer and next year too."
The video posted to her account @ has already gone down well with parents who want to try the hack.
