For geography buffs, there are entire countries to explore. Get hands-on, in depth experience from around the world in Epcot’s World Showcase. Epcot offers cool "Kidcot" stops for extra learning fun! Children can try food and drinks from other countries, and even meet Cast Members from those actual countries who come to work at Disney. Your child will also see the different architecture and dress, hear languages and music, and taste foods of many different cultures. Canada Far And Wide and Reflections of China are Circle-Vision 360° movies at the Canada and China Pavilions. These take the viewer on a tour of the natural beauty and historical structures and buildings of these countries.
Over at Epcot's Future World, Spaceship Earth takes you back in time to see the history of language and communication around the world (one of my favorites!)
If your kids love to learn about farming and gardening, be sure to ride Living With the Land at Epcot. This boat ride takes you through Disney’s aquaponics food growing system. The glass greenhouse features exotic fruits and fish farming. They also have a tour called Behind the Seeds*, which is available at an additional cost.
Like most kids, mine love marine biology and learning about sea life. Be sure to visit Epcot’s Living Seas building. Aside from the adorable Nemo and Friends ride, you can see dolphins playing, manatees, tropical fish, sea turtles, and more! Cast Members show interesting artifacts to touch such as shark jaws, urchins and fish bones. Turtle Talk with Crush*, an interactive show, teaches children about conservation and oceans.
Animal Kingdom offers the best learning experiences in all of Disney World, in my opinion. My kids love doing the Wilderness Explorers Scavenger Hunt game. At each W.E. station around the Park they get "missions" to complete to earn badges in their book. On Kilimanjaro Safaris, you get an up close look at wildlife on the African Savanna without fences or barriers. The animals roam free and it feels as if you are really on an African safari. There are also traditional animal exhibits and walking trails to view animals such as tigers, gorillas, meerkats, and more.
Young children who love Dinosaurs will enjoy exploring the Boneyard* and other areas of DinoLand U.S.A. Older children and teens who love Dinosaurs will enjoy the thrill ride DINOSAUR. In line you can see fossils and dinosaur skeletons. For a less thrilling dino experience, try TriceraTop Spin, which is like Dumbo, but with dinos.
