I just stumbled upon this and was wondering if they still have it and where I can get it? Thanks! This is the information on it.

GOOFY'S EPCOT GUIDE
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

In our March 2, 2004, WDW March Bits and Bites issue (Issue # 232), we told you about a new kid's scavenger hunt in Epcot called Goofy's Epcot Guide. This scavenger hunt is in the form of a fun, colorful booklet featuring Goofy and his pals that walks you through most of the major attractions and pavilions in Epcot. Each attraction has its own multiple-choice puzzle that you have to answer. After solving each puzzle, you transfer the colored letters of the answers to their corresponding spaces in the final puzzle of the booklet to solve it. Once you've answered all the puzzles and filled in the final answer, return to one of four locations for a prize -- an 8"x10" character poster. It's really neat -- I almost wished that I was a kid so that I could get one myself!

However, since I'm not a kid, and don't have any, I went to my expert kid reporter, Alex (who is nearly 12) to see what he thought about the guide. He said, "I think it's geared to littler kids, maybe kindergarten to third grade. I think it might appeal to kids as old as 10... after that, they start to think stuff like this is too 'babyish.' For me it was easy to complete, since I know Disney so well -- for a kid who hasn't been to WDW as often, it might be more of a challenge."

Also, Alex said he compared this new scavenger hunt to the Epcot Kids' Guide that used to be handed out (but which is no longer available from what I could tell). In his opinion, this new guide is definitely an improvement; it's interactive, covers a variety of shows and attractions, and has a reward at the end.

In the middle of the booklet is a listing of all the Kidcot Fun Stops in World Showcase. Be sure to have the Cast Members at the Kidcot Fun Stops stamp the booklet with their country stamps, as this makes for a nice collectible.

All in all, it's fun and different. Make sure your youngsters pick up Goofy's
 
My DD would LOVE to do this. Where do you get one? I'm assuming Guest Relations, but does anyone know for sure? Thanks! :sunny:
 
I found quite a bit about this and it really sounds fun. Only problem is all the info is from 2004. Is it still available? Does anyone know?
