Dreamworks

 

Yesterday after I finished work we went to an annual passholder preview of the new kid area at Universal Studios. Previously the area was themed to Curious George, Fievel Goes West, and Woody Woodpecker. Now it’s to several Dreamworks properties: Shrek, Trolls, and King Fu Panda.

There’s a couple playgrounds and a small coaster. The Kung Fu Panda area has a screen where an animated character can interact with the audience, similar to the Turtle Talk show at the Seas in Epcot. We looked around and watched the show in the Dreamworks theater. It’s a cute show for kids, featuring songs and characters from Dreamworks movies, but it’s not something we will watch again. 

We also checked out the new Tribute store. It was cute, set up like an old video store and video arcade, and featuring merchandise and decorations from several 80’s movies.
