BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Posted on the Disney Food blog...Disney Food for Families: An Ode to the Sand BucketMar 21st, 2011by Erin.Disney Food for Families columnist Erin Foster discusses a great bonus you can find with some kids? meals on Walt Disney World property!It?s long been said that Disney is in the details. One of my favorite Disney details is the container for children?s meals at some of the counter service restaurants at Walt Disney World. What is this magical container? The sand bucket!Buckets ready to be called into actionThere are restaurants located near the pools or sandy areas at Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, the Yacht & Beach Clubs, and the Caribbean Beach Resort that serve their kids? meals either in, or with, a new, clean, green sand bucket, complete with an attached little yellow shovel. (Editor?s Note: I?ve also seen ?em at Restaurantosaurus in Animal Kingdom?!)Sand bucket listed on the menu at the Beach Club's Hurricane Hannah'sThe bucket makes me happy on many levels: * You get a meal AND a toy for about the same price as kids? meals in other areas of the parks. * You don?t take up valuable suitcase room packing bulky toys from home. * Your kids are immediately entertained for hours by building castles, allowing mom and dad to sit nearby enjoying a frosty beverage. * When you?re done with the bucket, you can leave it at the pool, and feel confident in knowing that other children will make good use of it.It?s win for the whole family. So, thank you Disney. Thank you for the little green bucket. You?ve made my world a better place to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaddysCoolTV 4 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 If I remember correctly the ones at Blizzard Beach use to come filled with ice cream as stuff. Kind of like a small kitchen sink. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
polkadotsuitcase 12 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 When my kiddos were little, they LOVED those buckets. Sniff...babies grow up so fast...My 13yo actually said this morning that I wouldn't make a good president! The nerve! What happened to the kid who thought I walked on water?

Sensei 18 Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 I think the buckets are a great idea. We always have buckets and shovels in the RV for my granddaughters when they camp with us. They love it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
