Hi Maxwell,
Welcome to planDisney! You and your family must be counting down the days until your Disney Cruise Line vacation. I love that grandma is joining in on the fun; you all will make some special memories for sure.
I have good news! Grandma can accompany your little sailors to
Disney's Oceaneer Club and Disney's Oceaneer Lab while you are enjoying some adult time. On your first visit to the youth clubs, you may indicate who can pick up and drop off your kids. For children aged 8 and older, you can also give permission for them to check in and out on their own. Of course, you know your kids best, so don't feel compelled to permit them to come and go on their own if you are uncomfortable with that arrangement. All approved adults must know the
"secret word" and present their Key to the World Card at pick-up, so don't forget!
As a family, you might enjoy playing some Disney Trivia or enjoying some of the creative activities offered around the ship. To discover everything that's in store for you during your cruise, just open your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator App when you board the ship! Just tap the Explore tab at the bottom of the home screen to reveal each day's activities and events. Select the heart icon next to the events you don't want to miss and the app will send a reminder 15 minutes before that event begins. (For this feature to work smoothly, make sure to all app notifications.)
I hope this information sets your mind at ease, Maxwell. As you continue planning, let us know if you have other questions; we are happy to help!
Wishing you many magical memories,
Shannon
