few kids playing in the sand already and I immediately knew my son would love it so I took his shoes off and let him go at it.\u00a0 He, of course, grabbed a few shovels and started digging and pouring sand everywhere.\u00a0 I honestly think this was one of his favorite things about Disney World (that and getting a balloon on Main Street).\u00a0 He probably would have played in that dig site for at least half of the day if I had let him.\u00a0 What a great thing for Disney to do when they didn\u2019t have to.\u00a0 It\u2019s a great way for kids to play while waiting for their table and also just a nice way for mom and dad to get a break and relax but still be able to keep an eye on their kids. \u00a0So if you\u2019re hanging out at Downtown Disney remember this great little spot.\u00a0 I\u2019m thinking you could probably even bring your child over to play in the dig site even if you\u2019re not eating at the restaurant.\u00a0 That would be a perfect thing to send daddy and baby over to do while mom gets some shopping time!<\/p>\n<p>Have your children ever played in the bone dig site at T-Rex or do you know of any other hidden children\u2019s play areas in Disney World?\u00a0 Please leave a comment below and let me and other The Magic For Less readers know!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During our October
