Just 43 days until our journey to Walt Disney World, today’s blog post is about a ride that I’ve never taken before, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. I’ve harbored a small resentment to this ride, because it replaced Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride, which was a family favorite. But, I guess that’s not Pooh’s fault. Here’s what Disney has to say:
Travel through Hundred Acre Wood in an oversized Hunny Pot and immerse yourself in the stories of Winnie the Pooh.
A Storybook Come to Life
Glide and bounce and swirl through some of the most popular scenes and settings of Winnie the Pooh. Board a giant Hunny Pot and get lost in the pages of A.A. Milne’s classic tales, as you journey to Hundred Acre Wood.
Magically make your way through a colorful, song-filled storybook illustration and experience a menagerie of kooky adventures, including:
- A Blustery Day in Hundred Acre Wood
Get swept up in a gust of wind with Gopher, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga and Roo before sliding inside Owl’s House. - Bounce with Tigger
Bob up and down with Tigger during a delightful hide-and-seek adventure at night. - Heffalumps and Woozles
Enter a dream world where singing Heffalumps and Woozles spring up and down, giggle and wiggle, and try to steal honey. - A Rainy Place
Awaken from a dream amid a torrential downpour as Eeyore, Roo, Kanga, Rabbit, Owl and Tigger band together to stay afloat. - A Party for Pooh
Celebrate sunny days and togetherness before leaving the pages of Hundred Acre Wood as Pooh finally gets his paws on some yummy honey.
Pooh’s Interactive Queue
Explore Rabbit’s Garden, paint with honey and visit Eeyore’s home at this play space found just past the main entrance. Designed for both the young and young-at-heart, this Hundred Acre Wood-themed spot includes 4 areas of fun and games:
- Rabbit’s Garden
A hide-and-seek game with gophers, vegetables that play music and a crawl-through tunnel formed by stacked crates offer fun for little ones. - Hunny Wall
Draw shapes with overflowing honey by running your hand against a wall. - Piglet’s House
Knock on the front door to hear Piglet inside. - Eeyore’s Gloomy Place
Crawl through Eeyore’s leaning home.
Inspired by the Disney Movie
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is based on the Disney film of the same name. Comprised of 3 previous Winnie the Pooh featurettes inspired by A.A. Milne’s stories, the movie was released in 1977 and includes songs from Disney Legends the Sherman Brothers, known for such Disney classics as “it’s a small world” and “The Tiki, Tiki, Tiki Room.”
Since we have Fastpass+ for this ride, we will pass up Pooh’s Interactive Queue. If Ida wants to play for a bit, then we’ll ask a Disney Cast Member if we can enter after we ride for a little interactive fun.
I must admit, I absolutely love the stories of Winnie the Pooh. He is just such a sweet soul, and somehow represents all that is good in people.
Meet me at the Kingdom.

Yesterday Ida said, “Tiger is my favourite one!” 😄 I was showing her video of the Pooh breakfast characters. I asked if she wanted to cuddle Pooh and she said, “Too big.” But asked if she wanted to cuddle Tigger and she said yes. 😊
