10. Find Your Favorite Disney Character: Keep an eye out for Snow White near the wishing well. It’s a magical opportunity for photos and to say hello to a beloved Disney princess in a setting that feels just right.
11. Check out Kidcot: At the Germany pavilion’s Kidcot station, kids can learn about German culture and traditions, pick up a fun fact card, and receive a special stamp or create a craft to add to their collection. It’s a fantastic way for children to have a hands-on, educational experience while exploring the different countries represented in the World Showcase. The Kidcot Fun Stop in Germany is typically located in a visible area within the pavilion, often near shops or dining areas, making it easy to find during your world tour adventure.

Each of these experiences brings a piece of Germany to life in the heart of Epcot, making it a must-do for fans of all ages. Enjoy your journey through the German pavilion, and may it be filled with discovery, delight, and maybe a little bit of magic!
