Epcot in a Day

by SP on August 25th, 2006

The Imagineering Field Guide to Epcot at Walt Disney World“The idea of touring Epcot with kids intimidates some parents. It’s too big. It’s too adult. It’s too–drum roll–educational. Some even think you can’t get a true taste of all that this sprawling park has to offer in a single day. But, as they say in the France pavilion, au contraire. Jordan’s favorite Epcot attraction is Honey, I Shrunk the Audience. Appropriate, I think, because the key to touring this monster park is to shrink it, to present it to your kids in easily digestible bites. Though Epcot dazzles you with big stuff, the true magic begins when you savor the details, like meeting Pooh in a perfect English garden or watching your 10-year-old master her first virtual-reality ski jump.”

And this time we are going in January when the temperatures won’t be hovering around 100 degrees F in the shade. But last summer, to our amazement, it didn’t make the park any less crowded. Disney parks in August is as hectic as at any other time of year.

So where do you start? This guide offers some interesting suggestions.
