Hello Natalie,
Welcome aboard planDisney! We are so happy to see you here and to assist you with planning your
Disney Cruise Line adventure. Your family will love the
Disney Wonder! She is home to one of my favorite
rotational dining locations,
Tiana’s Place, which is fun for the entire family.
And speaking of fun, let’s talk
youth clubs! Children 3 to 12 years old will love spending time in the
Oceaneer’s Club and the Oceaneer’s Lab. These
two special themed areas offer a wide range of activities where kids can enjoy all sorts of games, interactive activities, art centers and more all supervised by amazing crew members. The Disney Wonder features spaces themed after Andy’s Room, Marvel Super Hero Academy, Mickey and Minnie Captain’s Deck and
Frozen Adventures. I have visited these spaces on embarkation day and wish that they were open to adults!
During your
online check-in process, you will have the option to pre-register your children for the youth clubs. Once you board the ship, you can visit the youth clubs during Open House and complete (or begin) the registration process. Check your
Disney Cruise Line Navigator App for Open House hours on embarkation day.
For tweens ages 11 to 14,
Edge is the place to be, where movies, video and other games and activities are designed specifically all led by counselors with a special cool factor for this age group. For teens ages 14 to 17,
Vibe offers the perfect teens-only space that includes age-appropriate activities and an awesome snack bar! What makes Vibe especially cool on the Disney Wonder is that it is in the iconic Forward Funnel of the ship!
Registration is not required for Vibe or Edge and kids can come and go as they desire. If your teen/tween is unsure, my best advice is to encourage them to try it out the first night when there are activities designed to help kids get to know each other. Once they meet other teens or tweens onboard and get to know the counselors, they will be more comfortable returning.
Natalie, I hope this helps you and your family as you plan for your amazing vacation. If you have other questions, please sail by again and let us know!
Wishing you many magical memories,
Shannon
