Disney Opportunities for Homeschoolers

I was aware that Disney had homeschool days at their parks, and so in looking those up, I also found some other educational opportunities available.  These look like they are option on days other than those specifically designated for homeschoolers.  They look interesting, and we will definitely have to check them out when/if we make it back to Orlando (or California).

Making Disney Educational

It has been a busy few weeks.  We have decided to take trip to Orlando in February.  We are planning several days at The Magic Kingdom and then a day at EPCOT and a day at the Wild Animal Kingdom.  I have been looking for some resources to make this a more educational trip, especially the EPCOT portion.  Madeline is particularly interested in geography and world cultures.  I have read reviews of the parks, browsed websites related to the park, and read books.  I recently found these books from www.vacationeducationbooks.com, which I am going to check out:





My biggest concern about them is that they may have too much of a religious leaning.  I am hoping that they will be good resources and have great ideas that I can work with.

I will let you know what I think!
