on the first countries listed, there is a place for that countries stamp on the top right corner and the bottom they can add a picture or write something they experienced about the country...my sons will be missing a week of school on their 2nd week back, so i thought i would at least make it a learning experience they can share with their class

As you tour the World Showcase, you will find Kidcot Stations. At these stations kids can complete a craft ( I think it's still a mask from each country). There are castmembers there from each country. They will stamp the child's passport and write to them a message in their native language. Last trip we were ther for DD's birthday and the CM'c wrote a her a birthday message in her passport. Morocco, China & Japan are especially cool because they write in their native alphabets as well. DD thought the Arabic message looked like a drwing rather than a message. We bought a pemade Passport last trip........now DD is like "been there, done that". She talks about our exploits in the WS all the time and was really excited about making a 'different " Passport for this trip. I created the Passports to be like a "mini scrapbook" from the WS. We're going to add photos in the spaces when we get home.

Natalie!!! Hope you are doing sooooo well! And thank you for allowing us access to your beautiful, BEAUTIFUL epcot passports, I LOVE THEM and cant wait for the boys to see them and get to use them. And I am so glad you mentioned the stamp thing because I was stumped....wasnt sure if it was a postage stamp or what?
Do you just go up to a cast member in that country and ask for a stamp?

Just ask them to stamp your passport......... they are very familiar with the process. It's really cool to engage them in conversation. They are all from the country that they represent and they'll tell you all about it if you give them the chance. It really opened up DD's eyes to the WS and EPCOT became more than TEST TRACK & SOARIN!!!!! We did two days in EPCOT last trip and wished we had time for more!!!!
