This is the prototype "tea cup" spinner attraction. The action on the cups has been loosened up in recent years, after being severly restricted. In fact, Disney now helpfully labels which direction you should turn the center wheel for maximum spin. If you're stuck in a car with spin freaks, keep your eyes' focus within the cup while spinning, looking up to a fixed point in the distance outside of the cup while it slows down at the end.

luuuuuuuuuuuv teacups!! i always make sure 2 get on every time i go 2 d-land! iz a bit dizzying, but super fun! don't go on after u eat.. u may barf. but truely, its a ball of fun!! the wait is less than alice in wonderland at least! so stop on by.. & happy un-birthday 2 u!!! :-) 8/10 - Aly W

fun but could get a little nauseas - Erik Avila

The tea cups are always fun. Not the ride to get on after eating. You need considerable strength to spin the teacups. The teacups are also pretty small, so if your over 6 ft than your going to be in for a squeeze. Simple,yet fun, I recommend people to get on this if they don't mind the spinning and if wait times are short. As with all the other fantasyland ride, waits for this ride get shorter at night. - Manny Barron

Fun, but these things are hard to spin if you ride alone. - Chloe !
