Innoventions worthwhile?

[ThreeTiggers]

Is there anything notable in Innoventions to do? I haven't been to Epcot in 15 years and I'm sure a lot has changed since then. We have daughters 7 and 6 and son of 2. The Unofficial guide doesn't specify any particular exhibits and does not include it in his tour plans, although grade schoolers give it 4 stars. Thanks for any insight.

We went in 2000, when DS was 11 and DS was 8, and we loved it. There are a lot of neat things in there, although I can't remember specifics. Next thing we knew, we had spent two hours in there.

There are a ton of games for the kids to play. Some exhibits, like a fire truck and hitting t.v's with sledge hammers, etc. Also, there is a plastics exhibit that my kids love. First you listen to a 5 min talk on plastics. What are they used for, etc. This is geared towards kids, think bike helmets. When the talk is over, you move into another room where you design and race your own computerized robot. Pretty cool. Then you are able to make your own plastic robot and take it home, ie: free souvenier. We have several of those things floating around the house.

Innoventions is definately worth looking into.

I don't personally get it but my kids (9 & 12) really love it.

Ditto on my DS6 LOVING the plastics exhibit. We did it twice on our last trip. And, if I hadn't pealed him away from the fire engine, he'd still be there flipping switches. Also, if you have a Disney Visa, there is a character meet & greet in one of the buildings each afternoon--you get a free 5 x 7 photo just for having the credit card.

Our kids love going in there to look around and play. We like it because it is air conditioned and keeps the kids occupied for a while. I would recommend going there.
