EPCOT is a park that celebrates human culture, connection, and innovation. Many guests consider EPCOT to be a park for adults with few attractions for children. This is a common misconception and couldn’t be farther from the truth. There are several family attractions within EPCOT that kids love. If have an upcoming visit to Disney World with your children then check out these 5 must-do’s for children at EPCOT.
1. The Seas with Nemo and Friends and Sea Base
Located in the World Nature section of the park, The Seas with Nemo and Friends is an attraction that is great for guests of all ages. Guests board the attraction and explore the “big blue” with Marlin, Dory, Nemo, and all of their friends from the classic Pixar film. Once guests disembark this slow-moving dark ride attraction they enter Sea Base: EPCOT’s massive aquarium. Sea Base is not only the largest man-made ocean enviroment in the world, but is also home to incredible marine-life like dolphins, manatees, sea turtles, sting rays, and so much more. Grown-ups and children will have a blast exploring Sea Base and seeing all of the fish and other creatures.
