mommyto2kids Posted January 20, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I know when we sailed on Carnival sometimes the kids club groups will combine at night. We are reuniting with a family we met last year on our Disney cruise. Our girls are 6 months apart, but when we sail one will be 9 and the other 10. I would love to do some adult stuff, but not sure the girls will go to separate clubs (they haven't seen each other in over a year) Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since one group is 6-9 and the next is 10-12 the girls will not be in the same group and will not be allowed to. NCL goes by age the day they board the ship. http://www.ncl.com/why-cruise-norwegian/family-cruises/youth-programs/faq Children are placed in the appropriate age group based on their date of birth at the time of sailing. Please refer to Freestyle Free Play for time slots where friends and siblings can play together. Edited January 20, 2015 by NMLady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommyto2kids Posted January 20, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I think you guys are missing the point of my question. I don't want one kid to go to the other club, I want to know if there are any activities that combine the age groups ie the late night babysitting Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYMOMA Posted January 20, 2015 #5 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Depends on number of kids during cruise time. One cruise there was no mixing. On another it was mixed ages 6-12. If you are going on a busy kid week, they will not be allowed to be together. There are family activities to do like cupcake decorating and other crafts Check the dailies to see.

mommyto2kids Posted January 20, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Found my own answer the groups are combined for babysitting Apparently the club is 6-12 in low season anyone know when that is? We are sailing in Feb. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikaia Posted January 20, 2015 #7 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Yes, kids are combined for the late night (fee based) stuff. Ages 3-12 are also combined for Freestyle Free Play (though sometimes 3-4 are kept separate). Freestyle Free Play happens most days, typically one hour in the morning, one hour in the afternoon, and one hour in the evening. NCL promotes these times for kids who want to play with their older/younger siblings. Port Play is also likely to be combined, since most kids will be ashore. If you're going during a school break, there will likely be lots of kids on board, so less likelihood of combining aside from Freestyle Free Play.
