I absolutely agree with your points!! I feel that my children have learned so much from our trips to EPCOT. As they grow older their perspectives change and their understanding increases so even though we go to WDW every year they learn something new everytime. Even though some wonderful educational pavillions have been removed, EPCOT is still a place for learning and expanding your world!!Kadee said:I absolutely LOVE EPCOT! I love the rides AND the countries. I find it very educational and make sure my daughter learns something on every trip. I am a science teacher and have used Disney references in my teaching. Even the thrill rides are educational. I mean, how else would you know what it is like to blast off in a rocket? PERFECT attention getter to an astronomy unit. The ride on video would be great for a classroom. TestTrack has many aspects of education.....Physics...experiments (testing the cars), and why the curves are banked, etc.... I can not wait for Soarin'! Wonderful for Geography lessons! The countries are perfect for geography and/or history. TOO many educational opportunities to list them all. The Land and Living Seas are very good, too. Even in the other parks, you can learn something. You just have to want to learn and look for the opportunities.
....Never stop learning!!:wave:
