Sand Box - I'M Confused

What is a sand box? I'm getting confused A hydra of meanings that's much overused A Soviet missile that goes very fast A hollow shaped mold - hot metal to cast When building an arch to empty as planned A poison dart tree - hura crepitans A tray filled with litter - a toilet feline A gadget for trains to tackle inclines To roughen fine paper for calligraphy For qualified shrinks a great therapy A safe place for software that's dodgy to run Or just a kid's play pit to have lots of fun
