Opinions on Epcot for 2 & 4 yo

[Disney Mama 2 Two]

We are going June 11-17th and are planning on doing a park a day (no hopper) and then a second day at MK. My problem is the more I look at Epcot I'm just not sure my family will have much interest in the stuff there. I want to go and check it out at least and I know they will enjoy the "nemo" stuff but what else is there for ages 2 & 4? I've heard about the KidKot stops to make the mask..how is that? How long would you think I should plan on spending there? Maybe have a morning at the pool or mini-golf then on to Epcot?

Appreciate any & all suggestions!

Check out the Characters on Holiday bus - stops throughout the day and a bunch of characters get off - lines form immediately for autographs - but there are usually some less common characters along with Mickey & Minnie.

Also there are characters throughout the World Showcase - Aladdin characters in Morocco, Pooh and Mary Poppins in England, Belle & Beast in France, etc. We have had really good luck with characters there.

The ride in Mexico is a pleasant boat ride - one room even looks like It's a Small World to me.

Princess meals at Akerhaus in Norway if you have a princess fan - we enjoyed it very much.

Turtle Talk with Crush at the Living Seas - and then look at all the aquarium stuff there.

Journey into Imagination

Illuminations of course is incredible.

And then there are several artists / performers all around World Showcase (and Future World, too) who are great.

Spaceship Earth is pleasant - not scary at all.

Hope this helps as a start.

When we took our DS 2 and DD 4 to WDW in Nov and Jan they LOVED Epcot. It's relaxed, little to no lines to wait in, surprisingly lots of stuff for kids. They loved making the masks, Spaceship Earth is their number 1 ride (can't explain that one totally) and Mexican boat ride was a close second, they would have stayed in Station Cool for an hour if we let them. Someone told me to bring them to the Energy ride, and they thought it was great. I'd definitely take them. I like AK a lot too, but we believe Epcot offers more for kids than MGM.
