Creator's Key Takeaways

I just thought this is the perfect here for us to go the twins just turned nine my little girl turned seven and I really wanted to get them in under that you know the Disney Magical age of 10

I was just blown away by first how beautiful the fantasy is and then second of all I had this crazy obsession with how good it smelled

the kids animators palette was beyond um anything they could have dreamed of

I couldn't have written a more perfect day there

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Attend the kids club open house on the first day to help children feel comfortable
✓Explore the ship early to get your bearings
✓Encourage kids to meet new friends at the kids club by asking about their names and cities
✓Book a pre-cruise stay at a Disney resort to reduce stress and have a buffer day
✓Try rotational dining and let kids order their own food to encourage trying new things
