Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Roberta! Thanks for stopping by with this excellent question!
My youngest still cherishes his "Knuffle Dino" from the
Build-A-Dino® By Build-A-Bear Workshop® at T-REX™. I remember how magical an experience this was for my son. He was very young and in absolute awe that a dinosaur was being built right in front of his eyes. I'm quite certain that your budding paleontologist will enjoy constructing a Friendosaur™ – or another one-of-a-kind dinosaur there too.
You might be happy to hEAR that a representative at
T-REX ™ has in fact confirmed that at this time, Build-A-Bear™ Gift Cards are a perfectly acceptable form of payment for any purchases made at a Build-A-Dino®. Not only that, but any Build-A-Bear™ Bonus Club reward certificates can be used at Build-A-Dino® too. Isn't that magical news?
The above being said, there is always that remote possibility that a change in policy takes place between now and the time of your visit. I suggest checking the fine print of any gift card(s) or coupon(s) for expiration date(s) and any exclusion(s). Alternatively, simply call the restaurant directly at (407) 828-TREX or (407) 828-8739.
Disney Mom Tip: If you are also dining at T-REX ™ during your visit, do request the spectacular "Ice Cave" sitting area. There is a full T-Rex skeleton encased inside the frozen cave wall, and the lights periodically change color creating a dazzling effect!
I hope you found this information helpful, Roberta. Please come back soon with more vacation planning questions.
Wishing you a magical visit to Walt Disney World Resort!
