My Disney Blog for Kids
Have you ever wondered what Space Mountain looks like with the lights on?
We were riding the PeopleMover in Magic Kingdom. During the ride, we were able to see Space Mountain with the lights turned on!
This was a big surprise because the lights on Space Mountain are just about ALWAYS off.
Here are some pictures:
Space Mountain looks weird with the lights on!
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover reopened today! (April 25, 2021.)
The PeopleMover closed before the pandemic started and for a long time we were all wondering when it would reopen. Disney had delayed the reopening of The PeopleMover a bunch of times.
That is why I was surprised to hear that it is now open. I even watched a live stream in Tomorrowland to make sure I was giving you accurate news.
I am very glad The PeopleMover is back because that is definitely a must do ride while you are in Magic Kingdom!
This blog post is a part of the My Top Five Favorite Things series and since I haven’t eaten at Tomorrowland or visited the shops I will just be telling you my favorite rides and shows.
5. My fifth favorite show is Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor. On this show the characters from Monsters, Inc. are trying to give their city electricity from your laughter. I like this show because it is very funny!
4. Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin is a ride were you and Buzz Lightyear are trying to defeat the evil emperor Zurg. This ride is like Toy Story Mania but not as good in my opinion. It’s just hard to tell if you have shot the aliens or not.
3. The Carousel of Progress is an indoor ride that anyone can do that teaches you about how technology has changed since the early 1900s. This may seem boring but it actually isn’t.
2. Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a relaxing ride where you get a tour of all of Tomorrowland. If you want to get away from the crowds than this is your ride!
Have fun trying these rides and shows in Tomorrowland!
Here are my favorite places to cool off in Magic Kingdom!
5. My fifth favorite place to cool off in Magic Kingdom is the Carousel of Process in Tomorrowland. The Carousel of Process is indoors and everyone can do the Carousel of Process because it is a show. The Carousel of Process is about how our technology has changed over the years and it is really fun! This show is great if you want to cool off because it is indoors.
4. The Pirates of the Caribbean is in Adventureland. It is a boat ride that shows you what it’s like to be a pirate and the pirates are trying to capture Jack Sparrow. This ride is indoors so it is perfect if you want to cool off.
3. The Enchanted Tiki Room is a show that is also in Adventureland. This show never has a line so it is a perfect place to go if you want to get away from the crowd. The Enchanted Tiki Room has audio-animation singing birds. The Enchanted Tiki Room is also indoors. If you would like to learn more about The Enchanted Tiki Room and see my full review click here!
2. My second favorite place to cool of in Magic Kingdom is the Jungle Cruise in Adventureland. (I know, Adventureland again!) On this boat ride you get to see fake animals with your tour guide. This ride is great if you need to cool off because the sun isn’t beating down on you.
Now this ride really depends on your tour guide. One time we had a great tour guide and so we enjoyed this ride. Another time we had an awful tour guide and so we didn’t enjoy our ride.
If you want to cool off while you are at Magic Kingdom than I would totally recommend to do these shows and rides.
Tomorrowland is designed to look like the future! It is located in the Magic Kingdom and it is also home to my favorite ride. I will tell you what ride that is soon.
Rides: Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a calming ride that gives you a tour of all of Tomorrowland and a great view. One time when we were on the ride it stopped working and we were stuck for 10 minutes! It was crazy! Cast members had to come and bring us to the exit. Tomorrowland Speedway is where you are allowed to drive a car even if you’re not 16! The only problem with this ride is that it smells A LOT like gas. Remember how I said that my favorite ride is in Tomorrowland? Well, I was talking about Space Mountain. (For a Space Mountain review click here!) Space Mountain is a roller coaster in the dark. Carousel of Progress is a relaxing ride for anyone and shows you how far we have come from the turn of the twentieth century. Astro Orbiter is literally on top of Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover. It is basically like Dumbo, but faster and higher. Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor is a sit down indoor show. Your friends from Monsters, Inc. are trying to give their city electricity from your laughter. Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin is a game similar to Toy Story Mania. (For a Toy Story Mania review click here!) You are basically shooting lasers and trying to take down Emperor Zurg.
Food: Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe has burgers, chicken, soups and salads. Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant is open seasonally. Here is a tip: the terrace has a great view of Cinderella’s Castle and it is the location for the Happily Ever After Dessert party. Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies has some delicious sundaes, smoothies, and ice cream. The Lunching Pad has pulled pork sandwiches and snacks. Joffrey’s Revive has some HUGE donuts and recently they have been selling miniature donuts.
Shopping: Merchant of Venus has your favorite character’s merchandise. Mickey’s Star Traders has a lot of Mickey Mouse merchandise.
Magic Kingdom is my favorite park because it has the most rides. My favorite ride is Space Mountain, which is located in Tomorrowland. The ride is in the dark and has sudden drops and turns. Too young for Space Mountain? My second favorite ride, Big Thunder Mountain, may be for you. Big Thunder Mountain is located in Frontierland. The ride is outside and has lots of curves. My third favorite ride is The Jungle Cruise. How amazing your ride is depends on your tour guide. On the Jungle Cruise you ride in a boat while seeing amazing fake animals.
My fourth favorite ride at Magic Kingdom is Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. This ride is short and is located in Fantasyland. Here you can take a trip through the mines but still ride a roller coaster.
My fifth favorite is Pirates of the Caribbean. Now you can take a trip with the pirates. Keep an eye out for Captain Jack Sparrow! He appears at least three times during the ride.
