Spike’s Pollen Nation Exploration Map

Festival goers can purchase a map and stickers (the 2025 price was $9.99 plus tax) at select locations (look for a sign like the one below), then fill in the map as they search for the plants Spike has pollinated.

The Egg-Stravaganza Scavenger Hunt is an extra Easter-season activity that is available for a limited time (through Easter, while supplies last). You can purchase a map and stickers at select merchandise locations around World Showcase.

Next, hunt for cute Disney character “eggs” throughout World Showcase and mark your map with the corresponding character egg sticker.

When you find all the “eggs,” you can return your completed map to Disney Traders and pick a “sp-egg-tacular surprise” that makes an adorable souvenir!
