While visiting the Disney/MGM Studios recently, I came upon the most interesting game being played by several young children. A custodial cast member had laid out two rows of artificial fruit in parallel lines. At one end of the fruit was a wicker basket. Each child was given a trash picker-upper – the kind that the janitorial staff uses to pick up rubbish. The kids would race back and forth, picking up the fruit and depositing it into the basket. The one who picked up the most fruit, won.
This event took place in front of the Sounds Dangerous attraction. As the park wasn’t busy, the event had plenty of room. (I’m sure this could never take place during a busy time of year.) No one seemed to notice the goings on except the parents of the children and me. Most people just passed right by without giving a second glance. I realize that this isn’t a big to-do, but I thought it was cute and yet another way that Disney adds magic even in very small ways.
