The fountains at EPCOT

[KimWDW]

I've heard on here that little kids love playing in the fountains at EPCOT. Does anyone have a picture of this that they can post? I've never seen them. Is it like a splashpad area like the Goofy Jets at POP?

Thanks.

It's an area with a bunch of holes in the ground, and the water spurts out of them at different times. My kids loved it. I brought a bathing suit for them (there are bathrooms nearby where they can change)

The jumping fountains at the Imagination Pavillion don't require a bathing suit (unless you stick your hand right at the water). They are at waist height on an adult, but jump across walkways and such. There was also a low toddler-height fountain by the jumping fountains. I don't remember a lot about it, except DS didn't get wet enough to need a change.

I think the OP meant the squirt fountains that come up out of the walkways near Test Track and just before you enter World Showcase from Future World. They will definitely get you soaked!

There are also the jumping fountains just outside Imagination pavilion, which will only get you wet if you're tall enough to stick your hand in them as they pass over the sidewalk, above your head.

The squirt fountains are pretty basic, really just big squirts of water that come up out of the soft, rubbery pad surrounding them. They are great fun for tots (and teens...and adults with the right sense of humor!). The squirt is very random and unexpected. You never know when or how much!

I have a pic of my neice playing in them! My DH got soaked in it, he decided to run through while they were all going at full force. lol

Thanks for the pic! Now I have a better idea of what they are. What a great way to cool down on a hot day.
