moki'smommy Posted January 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 9, 2016 As to times, you have to check your Navigator. The wake up/exercise activity is something like 8:30 on some cruises, but check the Navigator. There are no planned activities on Castaway for toddlers. There is sand and water. They might enjoy watching the 'crab races" or might not get into it at all. If you do a family bike ride, there are toddler seats available. You can walk around and see things. You might even see the Castaway Cat. There is live music. There is a game pavilion, but nothing in there is really toddler appropriate. Take along a bucket and shovel from the dollar store and plan to leave it there either at the kid area or trash. Play at the water's edge. Waves are a great treat to little people. The child will not be allowed in the pools, but there is a splash area where swim diapers are allowed. For sure, do open house times in the OC.

Flyguys0 Posted January 10, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Hi!!! one more question- on the Disney dream, is the nemo splash area indoors or can adults sit in chairs by it? Trying to get an idea of the ship layout. Is there an additional splash area outside for the non- potty trained kids like the other ships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex techie Posted January 10, 2016 #4 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Hi!!! one more question- on the Disney dream, is the nemo splash area indoors or can adults sit in chairs by it? Trying to get an idea of the ship layout. Is there an additional splash area outside for the non- potty trained kids like the other ships? Its outdoors but an inclosed space, so you can kind of sit outside it. Here is the DCL deck plan for deck 11: https://disneycruise.disney.go.com/ships/deck-plans/onboard-activities/nemos-reef-kids-area/ That will show you the layout. If you google disney dream nemo's reef, it brings up a few videos for you to look at and get an idea. Here is one video, but I suggest you also google for more videos on this and subject like it if you are unsure. A lot of time they can provide a fuller explanation that just words! ex techie Edited January 10, 2016 by Ex techie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyguys0 Posted January 10, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Thanks! Is there anything else pool-wise the toddler would be able to play in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex techie Posted January 10, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) Thanks! Is there anything else pool-wise the toddler would be able to play in? Afraid not. They are not allowed in most pools due to USPH regulations until they are out of diapers and potty trained. Here is the Know Before You Go section. Know Before You GoLearn about important health and safety policies regarding swim diapers, pool vests, toys and accessories. Swim Diapers The United States Public Health Service requires that only children who are toilet trained are permitted to enter swimming pools and spas aboard cruise ships. Children who are not toilet trained are welcome to enjoy our kids’ wet play areas and splash zones, where they must wear swim diapers. Please note: Swim diapers are not permitted in the pools, whirlpool spas, on the AquaDuck or in the AquaLab.

Ex techie Posted January 10, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2016 the bathtub in the cabin:D lol! A good and valid location! Also appropriate if the little one makes a deposit that not everyone else will have to see, evacuate the pool, or close the pool! ex techie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
