Innoventions West

Disney World's website calls Innoventions "a 2-building pavilion and interactive play space for kids of all ages where you can imagine, invent, inquire and be inspired while exploring amazing innovations that make our lives better." We just call it FUN!

On our quest to do absolutely everything in every park, Ian and I spent a few hours exploring Innoventions West, and saved the second building, Innoventions East, for another day.

In Innoventions West we learned about potential fire hazards in our house, by playing a game against other Disney guests using special flashlights. Our team won of course ;)

Free souvenir alert! Our gorgeous mugs as fire men:

Safety first!

Then we starred in our very own video game, in a section called "Smarter Planet." Wut wut...

Bonus, we emailed the game to ourselves so now we have another FREE souvenir! You can play our game too, just click here.

A few of our other adventures included more video games, and making velcro frogs that came home with us at the end of the day. Have I mentioned that I love free souvenirs!?

Look at Ian's frog going for a ride on his shirt. Adorable hitchhiker.

But by far my most favorite exhibit in Innoventions West is The Great Piggy Bank Adventure. Ian and I learned how to save money for a vacation playing interactive games on a tour narrated by the cutest piggy ever!

Isn't he cute? I was sad when in the end they told me the piggy was NOT another free souvenir :(

But Piggy and I were close friends while it lasted.

Ta-da! We saved our pennies in the piggy, and were rewarded with a super sweet virtual vacation. Now in real life, is the hard part of applying that swine-taught knowledge so we can take an actual vacation.

All-in-all, Ian and I give Innoventions West two thumbs way, way up. Free souvenirs, interactive exhibits, and two big heads full of knowledge we left Epcot that day with giant smiles on our faces.
