Kids' favorite things at Epcot (besides TT and Soarin)?

[nessz79]

I was going to say the Nestle Jr. Chef Program - but, it has been discontinued. Everything that has been mentioned is great for the kids. Epcot is my DS9's favorite park. One thing we/he really enjoyed was the behind the seeds tour - here is some info on it. It was really fun and very interesting.

Looks like my kids are about the same ages as yours...I have ds6 and dd5 - But we've been doing EPCOT with them for a couple years - so that's about right on with yours.

In EPCOT we LOVE - Soarin, Nemo Ride, Turtle Talk, Aquarium at the Seas, Living with the Land (don't know why but the kids have always loved this one), Journey into the Imagination with Figment, Test Track, Acrobats in China, Maelstrom, American Pavilion with drum corp, Voices of Liberty and History show afterward (they don't get it but they like watching it), and doing the Kidcot stations around World Showcase - (they really liked getting the passports and having them stamped).

It is one of our favorite parks.

ENJOY!

These are all good points...just wanted to mention that when we tested Kim Possible, we used special phones, not our own, so you don't need to worry about texting on your own phone.

We had a blast at Epcot in November. Our first day was at MK and it was fine, but it was at Epcot the next day that we were really feeling the Disney magic. We had lots of luck with characters, a blast on Mission Space, and the KP game was fun too.

It's nice to know my kids aren't the only ones fascinated with the land ride. DD5 loves it! I never thought of doing the Behind the Seeds Tour with kids!

My kids LOVE the water features! Now that they are getting older (6, 5, and almost 3) and I don't HAVE to have a change a of clothes, I always have to have a change of clothes for Epcot, otherwise, we end up with 3 soaking children on the bus!

We are taking our youngsters, 6, 3 and 2 back to Epcot this year. This year my 6 and 3 year old are particularly looking forward to the World Showcase because they want to buy a toy from one of the countries and are getting a tiny allowance to save up. One is convinced she will choose a bear from Germany and the other wants anything from China. They can't wait to make the tour.

In the past, we'ave found that the character lines were much shorter there than the magic kingdom, and besides a few great rides, they really seemed to like the Chinese acrobats and Japanese drummers (hope their still there).

The masks mentioned in the other threads were also fun for the kids. Sometimes we wanted to go to the next place and couldn't get them away from the craft table.
