Dumbo Play Area Capacity?

[fairy8i8]

I was wondering how big the play area at Dumbo is... my son just turned 3, so he is on the younger side. I am worried that during crowded times he will get trampled by older children.

How does Disney deal with the really busy Dumbo times? Does everyone wait in the tent?

I haven't been there yet (but I will be visiting the Dumbo area soon!) but I think the videos in this blog help give an idea of the amount of space Disney has given Dumbo.

The dumbo tent allows 175 people inside. Including babies. There is a small area for little kids to play in separate from the bigger kid areas. He shold be fine.

Thanks @Stout! You rock for answering!

Are there ever more than 175 people in line? Do they get turned away or is there a line for them to stand in outside? I gues with the FP option, this might not be an issue now?

We went the other day when there was about a 35 min wait. My DS really just wanted to play, so we were fine waiting that long. We ended up waiting in line (inside) for about 5-10 mins before we got a pager and then played for another 20-25. There were a lot of people in the tent. Enough that there were some rowdy 10ish year old boys who were running around playing tag and making me nervous that they were going to hurt my DS. (They were running up the slides and swinging all over the place). I kind of positioned myself in front of DS so they didn't hit him! I really wish parents didn't just let their kids run wild in places like that!

So just a word of warning! Yes the play area is GREAT and we love having a chance to let DS play, but sooner rather than later someone is going to end up really hurt!
