Where did all the sand come from?

• Sand is made from rocks clashing together and
  scattering all over the place.
• But how does it get here? Well, we can tell you
  how the strong wind blows the sand to Death
  Valley and other deserts. The canyons were made
  many, many years ago when water used to run
  through the valley. The strong winds have eroded
  the rocks aswell.
