I will be traveling with a group on the Crown's 3/10 sailing. We will have a 5 yr old with us, can anyone tell me what the children's program is like for this age?? Thanks.

Hi giadav,

 

We haven't sailed with children, but from what I've seen and read they have a great time and don't want to leave the children's area :) ! Here's the list for the "Pelicans" group (ages 3-7) and the link on the Princess site.

• Arts and crafts

• Backstage tours

• Disco night

• Movies and cartoons

• Scavenger hunts

• Talent shows

PARTIES

• Birthday parties

• Kids dance parties

• Pajama parties

FOOD

• Afternoon ice cream

• Kids-only dinners

Yes....that is what I have seen too, but was wondering if anyone has first hand experience/information.

WE went in Oct with our 4 and 5 yr olds. They did lots of art and crafts. They had dinner two nights, they danced. I can tell you they were very very busy and my daughters never wanted to leave. We went Halloween week so things were geared towards Halloween week activities. We have been on rci and princess but they keep asking to go back on the crown. they never wanted to be with us either.

My son loves the kids club on every cruise line. It is ideal for kids 3-6. These kids love arts and crafts, games and just being with other kids their age.

Your five year old will have a ball.

Older kids need more nudging. I think because older kids (7 and up) are far more concerned with peer acceptance. They embarrass easily and are less apt to jump in.

The little ones love though- are easy.

Thank you, that is great to hear!!

My girls really enjoyed the kids program. One thing to mention is that the hours are 9:00am to 12:00pm, 2:00pm to 5:00pm, and then 7:00pm to 10pm, so the day is broken up into 3 time sections. You can pay extra for babysitting after 10:00pm
