Play areas and interactive experiences for kids reopening?

[yorkieteacher]

This is one of those things that is a "my daughter read it on some blog/saw it on some vlog and can't remember which or exactly what" deals, but she told me she heard some play areas for kids and interactive experiences were opening up. Like Casey Jr and Winnie the Pooh and Dumbo's Circus tent playground. Oh, I hope so! Anyone know for sure?

I have not heard of any reopening dates being announced. You may wish to check here as it tends to contain announcements.

Update: Just found this: https://blogmickey.com/2021/06/first-disney-world-playground-reopens-following-covid-19-closures/

No news on this and everything is still closed.

No play areas but for kids they have tables set up at Epcot for kids to grab the kidcot cards and they do the festival centric scavenger hunts (for $) and at DAK they do wilderness explorers still

I have heard that this may be happening soon at Universal but nothing about Disney.

As mentioned in the link above, the play area inside the Dumbo Ride waiting area re-opened over the weekend. It's a start!

We noticed that at Flower and Garden. There was a really fun area for kids to play in, except it was closed.

It is a good start.

I'll take anything we can get, but have to say I think it is so weird that they're re-opening the indoor playground but not the outdoor ones. I sure wish they'd reopen the AK one and the newish one at Epcot.

& the Casey Jr. splash pad. I'm hoping they reopen that soon given the warm temps.

A splash pad just opened in Epcot

I just read all the arcades were opening back up today! I hope this is true! It seems maybe someone these "touch" areas are reopening. So glad-now on to opening interactive queues!

I saw that the water play areas were the opening- can anyone confirm is this is true for the dumbo play area in Magic Kingdom?
Also, does anyone know about the 'jumping water' area in Disney springs? Thanks for any help! We are bringing our grandson in a couple of weeks and he LOVES splash pads and those types of things!

We were at the MK today. The Dumbo play area inside the tent was open earlier in the week, but we did not look today. We did ride Pooh and Splash today and both play areas were closed.

The arcade at Art of Animation was open today.
