Disney’s Animal Kingdom may have celebrated its 25th Anniversary with a party last weekend, but this week, the work goes on. The Boneyard, in the DinoLand section of the park, will be closing for a spruce-up shortly. The refurb is expected to run from May 1st until at least mid-June.

If you don’t have little archeologists travelling with your party, you may not be all that familiar with “The Boneyard.”  It’s an excellently Imagineered play area for children that offers slides, climbing bridges and tunnels, all themed to a dig site with fossils, so that your youngest explorers can run off some energy at the park while parents get a chance to rest a bit in the shade.   

 

Just look for the oversized bone sign, or the giant set of dinosaur bones stretching across the walkway – you’ll know you’ve arrived. Just get there before the project starts getting dusted off on May 1st.
