Blow-up baby pool on Carnival deck?

[ThePinkSuperhero]

We go on a cruise next week with our 1-year old. We were planning to bring a blow-up baby pool for bathing, etc- would we be allowed to bring it to the pool deck and put some pool water in it for baby to splash around in?

It's easier to place yourselves away from the actual pool area where there is more room/fewer people moving around, but we did it by putting the pool between two lounge chairs. You could also go near the kids pool if there is one, which is often less crowded. I brought a little sand bucket along.

 

Best,

You can definitely do that. I plan to bring one for my daughter and if she's up to it and really likes it on the balcony I'll take it to the Lido too so that we can sit with family up there. We'll most likely have it in a corner against the wall since we'll be sitting at a table. And I wouldn't use the water from the pool because it's salt water and it could really irritate baby's eyes. Take a bucket of some sort and get water from the outside pool showers instead. Enjoy your cruise! :)

Awesome, thanks for the tips!

It should be a blow-up tub...not an actual pool.....that would take up too much room. A blow-up tub is small enough to fit, and takes little water for splashing...and can be used to bath a child that doesn't do showers yet!

The duck tub (which scares my daughter to death right now) or something like this that another poster was kind enough to suggest would serve for both purposes:

That's a great option Shante!

They also sell a blow up tub at K-mart that actually looks like a yellow duck, I bought that one to take for our granddaughter for her cruise on her 1st birthday !!!

Yup, I have a small blow-up pool I bought on Amazon!
