Frequently Asked Questions
Kids Digs 2+ Years
Yes, we can schedule multiple sessions back to back. (e.g. 10 am booking and a second session at 10:20 am or whatever appropriate time works for you). We recommend not booking more than two in a row, given the limited attention spans that our younger operators have. If your child is loving it and wants to continue, it’s usually an option to add on an additional time.
For the safety of your child, we cannot put kids in adult machines. Each of the larger machines has one seat and one seatbelt, which is not conducive to sharing. The Kids Digs machines can include an adult supervisor because we have disabled the track motor, and they are not in motion for everyone’s safety.
Your child can still operate machines less than 48″tall; they just need to sit on the lap of a parent or guardian to assist them with reaching the controls. Your child will be able to operate the machine on their own (or with the help of an adult if needed).
Given the limited operating time during a session, we cannot switch between parents as it greatly reduces the operating time for your child on the equipment. We recommend one parent sit with the child and the other take photos/videos. Alternatively, you’re welcome to book two sessions back-to-back. This allows each parent to sit with the child for one session, and everyone gets the time to operate and take the photos they want.
Kids Digs require parental supervision at all times, and parental assistance if your child is under 48″. If you have multiple children under 48″ we recommend bringing both parents, a friend or family member to help supervise. We cannot leave any children unattended while the parent/guardian assists another operator (this includes children in strollers/car seats). If both (or all) children are over 48″, one parent or guardian is perfect! If you have one child over 48″ and one child under 48″, one parent is also perfect!

Couldn’t have asked for a better family experience!! The staff was second to none and great with the kids 5 and 8 years old and they both had an awesome time. We were able to take all the pictures we wanted and interact with them both while they were in their vehicles.
