Default SOS with Sand stone flag stones

I have these awful sand stone flag stones as a patio.
I did not put them down my Dad did. I have moved into my parents old
house with my kids.
Knowing my Dad they were probably very expensive and look really nice
but are always dirty. Because they are soft they seem to permanently be
dirty & dusty. My crawling baby gets so mucky crawling on them that I
have banned him & my toddler from the garden because of these awful
flags.

Other than rip them up & relay bog standard cheap & cheerful concrete
(it is a really large area & surrounds the house) is there anything I
can do.

Is there a sealant or masonry type paint that I could use?

Please help ????

Soft maybe because the traction when wet was a safety feature.

Just Guessing.
