In case you missed it, we’re at Universal Kids Resort in Frisco, Texas, checking out everything this new theme park has to offer ahead of its official opening date on July 1st. We’ve already given you a full tour of the Universal Kids Resort Hotel, as well as a tour of one of its rooms, but now, we’re INSIDE the theme park, and we have SO much to tell you about.
So the theme park has seven themed lands based on some kid-favorite properties like SpongeBob SquarePants, Shrek, Minions, Trolls, Puss in Boots, and more. Well, that also includes a Jurassic Park-themed land called Jurassic World Adventure Camp…and y’all, this might be our favorite of all the lands because we just met a baby raptor!
Jurassic World Adventure Camp is the perfect spot for young adventurers and includes rides like Jurassic World: Cretaceous Coaster and Mr. DNA’s Double Helix Spin, as well as the Jurassic World Lookout Towers. However, the BEST part of Jurassic World Adventure Camp might just be the Baby Raptor Meet and Greet. Yes, you can come face-to-face with a baby raptor.
Universal Kids Resort calls this an experience that’s been “65 million years in the making.” The baby raptor does have a handler with him, because you know…he’s still an itty bitty baby. This is one experience your kids will probably be talking about FOREVER, so be sure to make time for it if you visit Universal Kids Resort.
We’ll be posting even more from Universal Kids Resort, so stay tuned to DFB for more.

We do this because it’s important to us as journalists to ensure not only that we give you unbiased opinions, but also that you can trust us to do so since we’re paying our own way. On rare occasions, when we are invited by a company to attend a preview as media, and when we choose to accept that invitation, we will always make you, our readers, aware of that situation. Today, we were invited by Universal to attend their media preview of Universal Kids Resort. Note that when we attend events as media we are 1) Not required to review that event/food on any of our channels, and 2) Not required to review that event/food favorably. You can always count on DFB to give you a 100% unbiased and honest review of any event that we attend, food that we eat, or beverage that we drink. You can see more in our Disclosure Policy.
