Disney Dreamlight Valley gives players total freedom to shape their village experience and assign roles to their favorite Disney companions. If you want to reassign a villager's primary skill to focus on collecting soil, pebbles, and sand, the Digging Training Manual is the perfect item to craft. Understanding where to find or craft this manual and how to use it properly will help you optimize your daily resource gathering routines.

Where to Find and Craft the Digging Training Manual

The Digging Training Manual does not spawn as a natural pickup item in any biome, so you cannot find it lying on the ground. Instead, you must craft it yourself by visiting any crafting table located across the valley. Under the Potion & Enchantment tab on the crafting menu, you can find the option to create this manual once you have gathered all necessary materials.

Required Materials for Crafting the Item

Crafting a Digging Training Manual requires a significant investment of resources, including 5,000 Dreamlight. In addition to Dreamlight, you will need to gather 20 Pebbles, 20 Sand, and 30 Soil from various biomes. You can harvest these items by digging up ground patches, clearing obstacles, or excavating beaches around the map.

How to Use the Digging Training Manual

Using the crafted manual is a simple process that takes effect immediately upon gifting it to a companion. Locate the villager whose role you wish to change, interact with them, and choose the option to give a gift. Hand over the manual from your inventory to instantly switch their active specialty to digging.

Benefits of Changing a Villager's Role to Digging

Assigning the digging role to a companion guarantees bonus item drops whenever you shovel ground spots or clear glowing cracks. As your friendship level increases, the villager yields even more bonus materials during excavation sessions. This makes collecting essential crafting supplies like sand, pebbles, and soil much faster and far more efficient.
