Hi Kim,
You are right; there have been a lot of changes underfoot as of late at
Disney's Hollywood Studios. With
Toy Story Land opening up next summer, followed by
Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge the following year, there is plenty to be excited about at Disney's Hollywood Studios!
Kim, my daughter also used to enjoy the Animation Classes hosted by Disney Animators in the Magic of Disney Animation building. Unfortunately, this well-loved attraction was closed a few years ago. However, I do have an alternative activity to suggest.
I am happy to report that
Disney's Art of Animation Resort offers drawing classes. Disney animators lead each class, providing instruction on how to draw and sketch familiar Disney characters in a fun and interactive session suitable for all ages. Currently classes are offered at 11 a.m., 2 p.m., and 5 p.m. daily and are held in the children's playroom located adjacent to the front desk in the main lobby.
Another idea you may wish to consider if your daughter loves to draw is picking her up a Disney character sketch book from the Emporium on Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom. These sketch books provide instruction on how to draw classic Disney characters and would make a wonderful keepsake from your trip.
Wishing you a wonderful upcoming Disney vacation!
Trish
