Walt Disney World Homeschool Curriculum
Think of this as your chance to learn everything Disney World has to offer ahead of time! It’s a great way to help your kiddies get ready for your next Walt Disney World vacation, and learn the art and science behind the magic whenever you’re ready to travel again!
Science Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM)
Disney Imagineering Curriculum
If there’s a future Disney Imagineer in your household, this online course is considered the canon for getting kids into the mindset of an Imagineer. Here, students will learn about storytelling, science, and the art of imagination, and how it is used in Disney Parks.
Complete the Imagineering in a Box at Khan Academy Course. And think up a new ride or experience that could work perfectly within one of the many lands at Disney Parks. What story would you tell? How would your design tell that story?
EPCOT Future World Homeschool Curriculum
The Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow (EPCOT) was a pet project of Walt Disney himself. And if you’ve ever ridden the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover in Magic Kingdom, then you’ve actually seen the original concept for this prototype, called Progress City, in the window box! You can dig deep into the history of how Epcot was designed to get an inside look at the future! While we have people movers, and monorails to some degree, they are certainly not implemented in our world yet.
Walt Disney’s original concept for the perfect futuristic city also included plans for a dome that would encase the city center so that it wasn’t affected by the outside weather. It also included large garden spaces and shared work so that everyone living in Progress City would have a meaningful job.
What kind of city would you design if you could start from scratch? What things do people need now that a new kind of city could provide?
Magic Kingdom Tomorrowland Design
Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom is ALWAYS Changing. Tomorrowland even recently got a new sign to match its more streamlined futuristic look for the 50th Anniversary of Walt Disney World. Interestingly enough though, the future imagined in the ’50s and 60’s still hasn’t happened. Ever watch The Jetsons? We still don’t have flying cars or at-home robots that do everything. And as much as Tomorrowland has changed, it hasn’t changed that much.
What things do you think we need in the Future? Make a list of ideas and ways you think they can be accomplished. you can get inspired by Disney Films that share ideas of the future. You can watch all of these on Disney+ or grab on Amazon through the links below.

Walt Disney at the New York World’s Fair 1964-1965
On April 22, 1964, the World’s Fair laid the stage for the arrival of a new kind of technology. Audio-Animatronics. If you’ve been on any Disney ride you’ve seen this technology up close! And even now this technology gets more and more advanced to look even more realistic!
- Featuring 100 countries with children from all over the world it’s a small world and was the centerpiece of the UNICEF pavilion. The bonus here for music lovers is that the original song was composed by Disney Legends, the Sherman Brothers.
- Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln was Walt Disney’s personal tribute to the 16th president and featured Abe himself. This is similar to the Abe we now see in the Hall of Presidents.
- Carousel of Progress was designed to show us “push button living,” which we’re obviously all in the midst of actually living now. Originally in Disneyland until 1973, the Carousel of Progress is now a staple in Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland.
- Another animatronic masterpiece that debuted at the Fair was Ford’s Magic Skyway. This is similar to the PeopleMover today and used a skyway transportation system to bring guests through a series of scenes. The original exhibit at the World’s Fair even included a trip back in time, complete with dinosaurs.
What would you bring to the World’s Fair today? Now called the World Expo, you can visit the World Expo website for details on how it all works!

Natural Sciences and Conservation

This is done through the Disney Conservation Fund. If conservation isn’t part of your Disney Homeschool Curriculum it is time to add it! You can brush up on how to be a better Eco-Friendly Traveler and glimpse some statistics for all that Disney does.

- Living with the Land. This ride is seriously one of our favorites in all of Walt Disney World. A simple boat ride, this weaves you through different ecosystems on the planet and just feels amazing. Just like any classic Disney ride, there are sights, sounds, and smells to make the experience feel real. We also love finding hidden mickeys here. Unfortunately, most YouTube videos don’t do this one justice. But studying ecosystems in your schoolwork can get you started.
U.S History
There is a TON of U.S History happening in the Walt Disney World Parks. So much so that you should have enough here to cover at least a year’s worth of study! Here’s where you can find your Disney Homeschool History Curriculum at Walt Disney World.
Hollywood Studios History Homeschool Curriculum

If you’re studying from home, read up on the news of the 1950s and drag a tv tray into the living room so you can have a meal in front of the tv!

Walt Disney and the World of Imagination
Walt Disney quotes are easy to come by. And many of them are about dreaming, imagination, curiosity, and all the things that come easily to children, but are more difficult to adults. To get an inside glimpse at the mind of Walt Disney and how he kept his childlike wonder alike through his adulthood, check out any Walt Disney biography. As the grown-up nurtures your child through any kind of education, it’s important to instill the importance of imagination. For it is imagination that will help grow creativity, resourcefulness, and more social skills than you can possibly imagine.

Wow! Just Wow! Thank you for this abundance of resources. Reading through this list brought sparkles of tears to my eyes and goosebumps to my arms. Finally, someone else who loves Disney and all the history, science, art, math and so much more that has gone into the making of what Disney has been, what it is today, and what it could be in the future. We are planning a home education trip to WDW this year and I am so excited to incorporate many of the above suggestions. Thank you for taking the time to pull together all of this research.
So glad you enjoyed it! My daughter is homeschooled and I love using Disney as a way for her to learn. I hope you have a great trip!
