Is it worth it to spend half day at Epcot?

[Disneybiginner]

we will go to Orlando in the middle of Oct. so far we only have plan to go to MK for MNSSHP on Tue, Oct 16. We were offered to have a discount ticket to any parks after 1 pm for $88 or after 5 pm for $65. Is it a good idea to check out F&W on Mon, Oct 15th? We have 2 daughters, 6 and 4 yo. Might be interested in Frozen ride only attraction wise. Also, we want to check out Illuminations before it retires next year. Thank you for your input!

We did that. DH wanted a non-Disney day so we just went to an outlet mall nearby. But we had an extra ticket so we ended up going to Epcot for the evening around 5pm. We got a fastpass for Test Track, enjoyed done other rides (for us, we were happy with rides), grabbed dinner and caught Illuminations. Great evening.

If it doesn't break your budget, it sounds like a great way to spend an evening.

I think so. Epcot is my favorite park! Some little kids like it, some not so much but you won't be there that long. It is a feast for the eyes and so your girls might just be memorized!

I’d check it out for sure. You can get them the Remy Hide and Squeak to help keep them entertained while you tour the food booths. It’s around $6-7 and they get a prize at the end of finding all the Remy’s.

Yes, a half day at Epcot during F&W is worth it!

I'd say it's worth it! For what it's worth, my kids enjoyed a lot of Epcot rides at those ages (Figment, Nemo, Mexico boat ride, spaceship earth, naming the foods in living with the land...). We also spent a lot of time in the acquarium after the Nemo ride. It was one of our favorite parks back then!

I would do the after 1 pm ticket. F&W is an amazing event for adults. But they have added more things for kids.
we go for the week and spend 3 days in EPCOT and still don't see everything during F&W.
your kids would enjoy FEA, Nemo. They may like Soarin, and in the afternoon,, FPs are often available.
