    My son will be about 7.5 years old and we are interested in the dine with an animal specialist at Sanaa, but the website says its recommended for kids 8 and older. Is this an enforced age limit or would we be able to attend this experience?

    Welcome back to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Jeffrey!

    The Dine with Animal Specialist interactive meal at Sanaa is truly a “wild” experience! I contacted our friends over at Dining Reservations for you and unfortunately, I was told that they are very strict with this policy and Guests must be 8 years of age or older to participate. Might I suggest an alternate activity, Caring for Giants at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park? With this experience, you will meet with animal specialists and be able to observe the elephants from close-up! It is a 1-hour presentation and you can reserve it by calling (407) WDW-PLAY or (407) 939-7529.

    I am so sorry that you won’t be able to Dine with an Animal Specialist during this visit to Walt Disney World Resort. I do hope that you plan another vacation to experience it. Come visit us again real soon,
