EPCOT Storytellers

[CinderellaDream]

On our upcoming Christmas trip I would like to see some of the Holiday Storytellers at EPCOT. We have two girls, ages 7 and 4, and plan to be in EP on Dec 17. I know we won't be able to hear all of the storytellers in one day so which ones would be best for their ages or which ones are just better in general? Thanks!

Our favorites are the Norway, UK and Italy storytellers. For the ages of your kids the Norway would be number 1.

I agree. If you only have time for one, make it Norway. I also recommend the Voices of Liberty in the American pavillion. They will be singing holiday carols.

I agree don't miss Norway.

Thank you! I'm going to shoot for Norway, Italy and definitely the Voices of Liberty (my favorite). Anything else will just be extra!

Germany was fun too.

We just got back. Our boys are 4&7 . We loved Norway, UK and Italy. We also did Germany last year and the kids liked that too. Italy was new this year for me and I thought their storyteller did an excellent job. Really captivating. My oldest got to help in the Norway one. It was a lot of fun. We tired Voices of Liberty but it was painfully slow for us. Not Christmas related but we all also loved the waiter act in France.

We saw the one in Morocco today for the first time and there is an opportunity for kids to dance with the storyteller so your kids might like that. Also, a favorite of ours is Pere Noel.

we like UK (don't miss) and Germany. I want to catch France this year but will check out Norway. We have two ECPOT afternoons so hopefully we can hit them all.

I've seen these story tellers with rather large crowds as we've strolled by in the past, but have never stopped and watched. Planning to do it this time...about how long should we plan for each of them? Less than 30 minutes?

each story is about 10 minutes, give or take. No need to get a spot early, many of them are in open space and only get people coming once they are out and start telling their stories.
This year I love how they put the Norway storytellers in their own little theater (it's a semi circular area by the Frozen Sisters meet and greet)

Norway is #1 by far for young children. I also agree that Italy is good.

Maybe it's because I am an adult, but I'm in the minority and wasn't impressed with the Norway storytellers. However, Italy's La Befana was terrific!

We did Christmas in Disney 2010 (our Boys were 10 & 13) & 2011 (11 & 12.) We saw Italy, Germany, Norway, & China. My (then) 10 year olds favorite was Norway. I loved Italy too.
