Hi Halime! Welcome to planDisney!
One of the best things about the Walt Disney World Resort is all the fun extras that are offered across the theme parks and resorts! While most Guests enjoy riding the exciting attractions or eating at the countless dining locations, many other experiences can make your visit that much more special. Over the years, my family has found that these activities end up being some of the moments that we remember and talk about from our visit.
I have great news!
EPCOT is still offering this fun activity known as
Kidcot Fun Stops. The experience is slightly modified as the Cast Members in each country are not physically stamping the passport at this time. They are handing out activity cards in each country that have cultural traditions and fun facts about each. Your little ones will be tasked with searching for the station set-up in each country, and many can be tricky to find their whereabouts. My daughters had a blast exploring each country and I learned a bit myself on our adventure. The best part was returning back to the resort at night and having them lay out all of their cards in the room to remember back to each interaction!
In addition to this fun exploration, EPCOT offers a seasonal scavenger hunt to add to the fun. Spike the Bee’s Pollen-Nation Exploration scavenger hunt has been brought back this year for the
EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival. Spike the Bee will be hidden in various locations all around the park and it will be your little one's job to find each spot. You'll need to purchase an Exploration Card at select ECPOT stores in the park, which will come with stickers to mark when you found one. Once you complete the hunt, bring your card back to the store to receive a prize for your efforts. We did this hunt last year and had a great time participating.
If you happen to be staying at a
Disney Resorts Hotel or get a chance to visit any while you are there, stop by the front desk to see if they offer any fun activities. Many of the resorts have complimentary scavenger hunts to keep your little ones busy. In fact, Disney's Polynesian Village Resort introduced a new one for the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration!
Haline, I hope you have a wonderful time on your next Walt Disney World vacation.
Stop back anytime to planDisney with your planning questions!
See ya real soon!
