The Wonders of Life is one of the most popular pavilions in Epcot, namely because it offers the perfect combination of entertainment and education. Located next to the Universe of Energy, Wonders of Life explores the origins of life and health in general. Disney approaches the subject in a frank manner, but won't offend anyone with delicate sensibilities. The shows, exhibits, and presentations are engaging, keeping this attraction as one of the busiest in Epcot.
Wonders of Life is comprised of three main attractions. The main draw is Body Wars, a motion simulator flight through the human body. (The first flight simulation ride in Disney). Another multimedia presentation is Cranium Command, an entertaining presentation that demonstrates how the cranium co-ordinates different regions of the brain and body during the course of a day in the life of a 12-year old boy. The Cranium Command and its elite corps of Brain Pilots help the protagonist, Buzzy, through a tough day. See if you can name some of Buzzy's famous organs during the 20-minute film.
The Making of Me is another intriguing film that presents a surprisingly touching and educational look at human reproduction. Starring Martin Short, this 14-minute film blends animation and live action to tell the story of where babies come from. Sex is frankly discussed in this lighthearted film intended for children. The Wonders of Life has synchronized the start times of the three films so you can see them one after another.
The final section is the Fitness Fairground, a huge educational playground where kids can play with interactive games and fitness displays. Highlights include the AnaComical Players Theater, an improvisational comedy troupe that involves the audience in some educational and funny shows presented throughout the day.
