Epcot has always been one of MY favorite Walt Disney World Parks, but not always one the kids gravitated towards but that has definitely changed over the last few years! It’s now ALL of our favorite! Be prepared for a LOT of walking, this is definitely the park to rent that stroller (even if they are a little older!) if…

Triggers: Fast moving roller coaster, dips/twists Pro: Short pause in middle of coaster Exit: You can opt out and wait on the other side of the exit gate if the child is 8 years or older One of the most popular rides in Toy Story Land inside Hollywood Studios, the Slinky Dog Dash!

Triggers: n/a Pro: Interactive story telling, able to move around Exit: Due to moving between 3 rooms, exit is possible, but if you feel this is not a good fit for your child, I would just avoid the attraction. This is definitely more of an attraction than a ride! Enchanted Tales with Belle is just as the name would suggest,…
Triggers: Wait can be long before entering large amphitheater type room Pro: Super funny jokes, animations! Exit: Due to length of show, I would suggest if your child wants to opt out last minute, that your entire party (or at least one adult), wait with them through the exit doors. We don’t always hit this attraction on our visits, but…
Triggers: Some up/down movement in car, air blowing, bright colors with movement Pro: Pooh is a well known “safe” cartoon character, slow moving Exit: You can opt out and wait on the other side of the exit gate if the child is 8 years or older If you had asked me initially, I would have said this was a NO-brainer,…
