Most Underrated Attraction

Ferris wheel in DCA. Its the only ferris wheen in any park i think, and it offfers 2 ways to ride it. 1, in a static car that doesnt move around, offering a serene beautiful view over the park and 2, in a moving car on rails that rocks around, offering the most terrifying experience in any disney park ive been to.

The best and most underrated attraction is Living with the Land. That is always my 1st and last ride of any trip.

The Enchanted Tiki Room. Because it just reeks of a certain mid-century innocent charm that could have only come from that era's Walt Disney Company.
And it allows you to sit in air-conditioning for a little while. I wish they kept the original, slightly longer show for this reason.
Bonus to the Disneyland version because you can sit around a little lanai eating Dole Whip while you wait for the show, and for the Tropical Hideaway eating area they added on the backside. I only wish the menu here was a little more extensive. I could sit here for an hour, particularly at night.

If you need proof that Disney can be fun and educational look no further.
I can't tell you how many times I've referenced those attractions throughout my life in educational ways.

Hall of Presidents and Carousel of Progress come to mind. I can remember thinking the last time we went to MK that my kids (7 and under at the time) would be restless during Hall of Presidents and that would bug me because I really love the show. Nope. They were in awe for all 22 minutes of it. I don't know if it is the large theater, the large curtains or the Presidents all in one room, but it fascinated them.
Carousel of Progress simply because if anyone knows an attraction that is similar to it then I've never seen it.

Popular culture and assumptions today seem to ignore that many kids are actually interested in history, especially when presented in an entertaining fashion.

Agreed. My son is more interested in the wars of the 20th century and all of the geography of the world, including things like former Presidents. And he would prefer that over a rollercoaster.

We will be bringing my 12 year old nephew in January for his first time. While he loves Star Wars, Harry Potter, and coasters, etc... he also loves history (WWII specifically right now) and oddly enough, Frank Sinatra. He will talk your ear off about Hitler facts like my son did about Pokemon when he was that age lol. I think he will like COP and the HOP.

I know it's got a bit of a cult following, but after those folks, me included, the Peoplemover is very underrated...

Country Bear Jamboree, Carousel of Progress, PeopleMover - all the things I miss from DL that WDW still has.
Spaceship Earth is also magical to me.
And Tiki Room is a true gem, too.

Tom Sawyer Island in WDW Magic Kingdom is my vote. The caves and fort are really cool to explore, the whole island is just an awesome little escape from the craziness of the parks, and it hardly even feels like you’re in a theme park.
I especially love going through whatever cave has the gold and the creepy noises. It’s also cool looking at liberty square and the haunted mansion from that different perspective.

I saw both of those in the 70's as a child and they were boring.

I won't! I admit we don't always do those things (a history buff I am not lol), but we will make sure we do it for them. My mom will enjoy it as well.

You know what some smart person said a long time ago... "Those who don't know what's been, proly gonna eff things up again."
That's not an exact quote, but somethin' like that.
