Hi there, Denise!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel! I am so excited to hEAR you have your second Disney Cruise Line vacation planned! I always think they can never get better than the last, but let me tell you, that is simply NOT the case!
All Disney Cruise Line ships have onboard
Youth Clubs for the youngest cruisers to enjoy! And they are included with your reservation (aside from the nursery, in which there is a nominal fee). As long the little Mouseketeer with you is at least three years old and fully potty-trained, she will be able to go to the Oceaneer Club or Lab for secured programming (which means she can be checked in while you and her mother enjoy some time without her). You will want to ensure that she is registered for the Youth Clubs when you complete your Online Check-In (90 days ahead of sailing for Silver Castaway Club members, 75 days prior to sailing for first time Cruisers). Then when you arrive at Port Canaveral for embarkation, she will receive her Oceaneer Band which will be used to check her in and out of the Youth Clubs.
At the same time that you complete your Online Check-In you will also be able to book onboard activities such as complimentary character greetings, reservations at the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique and Port Adventures! A
Halloween on the High Seas sailing is always so much fun and you’ll want to plan to bring costumes for Mickey’s Mousequerade Dance Party and other fun Halloween-themed activities onboard!
As your adventure approaches, please stop back by with any other questions you have! Wishing you all a magical and memorable Disney Cruise Line vacation!
Happy Sailing!
