If you've ever pretended to be a construction worker in the sandbox, playing with your toy construction vehicles, Dig This is offering you the chance to do that for real with actual machinery.
Now that your inner child has stopped screaming and you've calmed down, you'll be happy to know that Dig This offers a slew of planned activities that will allow you to play out your construction worker fantasies. Once you learn basic safety, you'll choose from a variety of bulldozers and excavators and will perform simple tasks at first, then go head to head in competitions against friends.
If you're wondering where you have to go in order to take part in such a magical activity, it's in (where else?) Las Vegas, which makes it the perfect spot for those attending Trend Hunter’s Las Vegas innovation conference.
