Question: What are the Epcot Passports that I see people getting stamped?

Answer: The World Showcase Passports are a fun way to record your family’s adventures in Epcot! Each passport kit comes with stickers to place in spots for each country. You can purchase them for $9.95 all around the park at the souvenir carts. You also get a Mickey Mouse button for participating!

EPCOT is my personal FAVORITE park. I used to think my kids wouldn’t enjoy it, so we skipped it. When they were 6 and 7, we decided to give it a go. It’s now their 2nd favorite Park (after MK of course!) They still play with their Duffy Bear and Perry Platypus Puppets they colored in Mexico and Italy, and took their passports to school to show their classmates.

Kidcot Fun Stops are located at:
Canada Pavilion – At the exit of O, Canada!
United Kingdom Pavilion – At The Toy Soldier
France Pavilion – At Souvenirs de France
Morocco Pavilion – At the Marketplace in the Medina
Japan Pavilion – In the Bijutsu-kan Gallery

Italy Pavilion – Near La Bottega Italiana
Germany Pavilion – At Volkunst
China Pavilion – Near the exit of Reflections of China

KIDCOT signs are what you should look for in the World Showcase (and a few in Future World) There is usually a table with Cast Members from the various countries. They will talk with children about their native land, engage them in a craft, stamp their World Showcase Passports if they have one, and sign a personal message in the language of the country. Educational and Free!! You can’t beat that Mom & Dad!

I hope your family has as much fun as mine does in EPCOT, I highly recommend it for children of ALL ages. There is MUCH more to do than the Park Map shows!

  1. We just finished Epcot and my daughter collected all the passport stamps. I made a few observations. First, all of the countries accept one, were staffed with natives from the country and participated in the passport/stamp program. Africa however was staffed with NON-AFRICAN whites and didn’t particpate in the program.

    I’m a little disturbed how Disney addressed the continent of Africa. The Morocco area is really nice and has people participating in the passport/stamp program, but it’s more of a middle eastern culture than African.

    I don’t want to politicize Disney, but I fear it’s undewhelming development of their Africa area is representative of how Africa is widely undervalued. Especially since Disney has made so much money from African based movies such as Lion King and Madagascar.

    There may be a perfectly justifiable explanation, but in the absence of it, it’s just a disturbing observation.
