Kids Activities on Star Princess

[shiner6]

Hi!

I love this forum--sooo helpful...I need any info on the Kids activities on Star Princess--Going to Alaska this June and want to plan ahead-I appreciate any tips/pointers/Helpful hints. I have cruised only Disney in the past and of course they are superb at Kids activities. I realize that this will be different-I chose this ship for the itinerary, not the characters (although I do like characters of ALL types!):p Thanks for your help:D

The far better place for this research would be on the Princess board, here:

because the activities will be pretty much the same fleetwide, and world wide. Not much Alaska related.

You don't mention the ages of your kids. You can find the kids club schedules for the Shockwaves (8-12) and Remix (teen) groups here: http://s204.photobucket.com/user/cruisinmama06/library/Princess%20Patters?sort=3&page=1

 

These were for the Golden Princess, round-trip Seattle in 2011. They should give you an idea of types of activities, hours on sea/port days, etc. Despite what the previous poster said, they DO have Alaska-specific activities, particularly if you go to Glacier Bay.

:pThanks,

She will just turn 8 in April so I am concerned that she might be the youngest in her age group. I have only Disney ships to compare from experience and they did a great job, just wondered what I might expect--I know this will be different because of the Alaska itinerary and I am hoping it will be great!!!

If she is anything like my daughter (now almost 15) she would rather be the youngest in her group than be stuck with a bunch of 3 year olds. :eek:

 

My daughter was 12 on our cruise, so at the top end of the group, but luckily there were enough kids that they split the group into 8-10 and 11-12. Maybe the same will happen on your cruise so your daughter will be in a group closer to her age.
