During a recent visit, fans noticed the interactive screens, a beloved feature in the queue, weren’t detecting motion properly. While the first screen was lit up, it wasn’t responding to guest movements, which left some families and fans disappointed that this fun, hands-on element wasn’t in full swing.

The interactive screens in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh queue add a unique layer of magic to the wait. Here, guests can “paint” virtual honey by moving their hands along the screens, bringing Pooh’s world to life. For younger guests and die-hard fans of the Hundred Acre Wood, these interactions create an immersive experience that turns a traditional queue line into an attraction in itself.

But, with thousands of guests visiting daily, it’s not surprising that these elements occasionally need some extra TLC. Interactive queues are designed to be touched and engaged with, so they experience a lot of wear and tear over time. Whether it’s enthusiastic young visitors or adults eager to join in the fun, the excitement can sometimes result in more aggressive interaction, and the features sometimes go out of order temporarily.

The good news is that Disney is well-known for its quick fixes. The park’s maintenance teams are incredibly proactive and typically on top of issues like these, working hard to restore every bit of magic as soon as possible. It’s one of the reasons Disney maintains such a strong reputation for high-quality experiences, so fans can likely expect these screens to be back up and running shortly.

This is also a good reminder for all of us visiting the parks to handle interactive features with care, so everyone can enjoy the magic for years to come. Disney’s parks are filled with these unique touches—details that elevate the experience and make each visit feel extra special. And with just a bit of attention and care from each guest, we can all help Disney maintain the magic.

So, next time you’re in line, remember to treat these attractions with care, and let’s keep the Hundred Acre Wood as enchanting as possible for all who come after.
