Sunday, November 27th.
1) Arrive for lunch and I'm still undecided as to where to eat Maybe Sunshines
2) Turtle Talk with Crush
3) The Seas with Nemo
4) Test Track for 4 year old with rider swap
5) Gran Fiesta
6) Frozen Ever After
7)Royal Sommerhus for meet and greet with Elsa and Annah
8) Japan Pavilion to find a pearl

If Akershus opens up I'd love lunch or dinner there but with all this princess overload it might be nice to walk to Boardwalk and eat at Big River Grille for the hubby. What do you guys think? Does this sound like a good plan. We have watched many youtube videos of all the rides and attractions and these are the only things my girls have shown interest in.

Love a little Disney every day!! ;)
I would consider picking a restaurant for your hubby in Epcot in World Showcase over Big River Grill any day. There are so many delicious options in World Showcase. ;)

I would omit eating at Big River Grille as well. There are way better places to eat in the World Showcase (do you all like Japanese?) if so Teppan Edo would be a great choice (show plus food and the kids would love it!). Also, stopping in Germany for Karamell Kuche would be fun (the kids can watch them make caramel creations. The bakery (Les Halles) in France is awesome too, theres also a gelato place there too that is excellent (Les Artisans). Enjoy!

To add we love Via Napoli, Le Cellier, Tokyo Dining (TS with Teppan Edo), Biergarten, etc etc. Check the menus out to see what appeals to you most. ;)

My kids (4 yr old girl and 6 yr old boy) love Teppan Edo, San Angel Inn, Restaurant Marrakesh, Tangierine Cafe -- they all tend to have foods that little kids like.

And I wouldn't sell the girls short. Sometimes the attractions are better in person than the ride through videos. A lot of little kids like the following that you plan to skip:
Spaceship Earth
Living with the Land
Journey Into Imagination with Figment
Ellen's Energy Adventure
American Adventure

You can also purchase kid passport kits at Epcot. They come with pretend passports, a Mickey Epcot pin and lots of stickers. When you have them go around the KidCot FunStops, the Cast Members from each country will write a personal welcome to them. They're really nice souvenirs. I don't know which character is on the stick to color at the KidCot locations. It was Duffy or Perry last year. My kids still love coloring them.

I love Spaceship Earth and Living with the Land! I have not been on the other 3, I don't know why...but I'm going to try those this time.

I also agree with other people about all the great food options in EPCOT. No reason to leave. My favorite is the Biergarten.

Haven't been there since they added the film shorts but perhaps they would like those? Also they can meet Mickey Minnie and Goofy at the character spot. My kids enjoyed the Ellen ride. THey love the little personalized films on Spaceship earth too. There are many princesses to meet throughout the world showcase. We have had some really fantastic interactions with them at these locations. You can meet Daisy Duck and also Donald in Mexican attire. There is a movie with Lion King characters near Soarin. And my kids absolutely adore Livin with the land. They love seeing the produce growing and naming as many as they recognize and seeing new items they don't recognize. A lot of the entertainment acts along the World Showcase are very interesting for kids too.

You can get the passport at the international gateway gift shop (the "rear entrance" to EPCOT) or the Showcase Plaza gift shops as you enter World Showcase. They are also available at various carts, etc, around it.

It's a lot of fun to do.

I'd also recommend doing Perry Adventure with the kids. SIgnups can be found as you enter World Showcase, over by the English Pavilion and over by the Norway Pavilion (if they haven't moved them, check the map!).

My daughter loved making her way around World Showcase and getting her "passport" stamped in each country. We would explore the shops and maybe get a snack for the family to share. There are also characters and performers in each land to check out. Epcot is tied with MK for her favorite park.

The arts and crafts activities they do at KidCot areas are neat as well. Lots of great refidgerator art came from that. If you are a two party parent (or there with another adult) which I was not, it's nice because you can send one adult off to get a snack and bev and let the kiddo just do their thing...

It's all rather playschool level stuff, but kids seem to love it anyway...
