3 Things You Won't Hear Kids Say on a Caribbean Cruise
Since my kids were six months old, we've traveled countless times. From pulling over to explain why Grandma smells like menthol to breaking up squabbles, it can be exhausting! But there’s a simpler way to travel—taking your kids on a cruise might just become your favorite holiday! Plus, here are 3 Things You’ll Never Hear Your Kids Say on a Caribbean Cruise.
Are We There Yet?
Nothing compares to the thrill of waking up as you dock at another cruise port. The Caribbean is filled with educational and cultural experiences for everyone, featuring multiple destinations and exciting shore excursions. Your kids can even track your journey on the stateroom TV! The anticipation builds as they explore the upcoming destinations, learning about languages, currency, culture, and souvenirs to bring back from the Caribbean. Involving your kids in planning will help prevent those dreaded words from being uttered. Family-friendly staterooms include interconnecting rooms, Oceanviews, or private Balconies, plus Family Mini- and 2-Bedroom Suites (with tubs!) situated near kids’ areas. Keeping their routine while cruising can ease any travel anxiety.
I'm Starving!
While aboard your ship, you're likely only five minutes away from a meal. Whether it's a casual buffet, complimentary meals for kids 12 and under at a Specialty Restaurant, or just a quick burger or pizza, there’s always food available at any hour. Additionally, you can enjoy 24-hour room service in your stateroom, perfect for breakfast in bed with your kids or a snack for those unexpected cravings. The convenience of Freestyle Dining by Dinogo lets your family eat whenever and wherever you wish, without being tied to a rigid schedule. You'll enjoy the flexibility to make choices as you go along.
I'm Bored!
Cruises offer immense pleasure for both parents and children, with seemingly endless activities to partake in! “No, mom, I don’t wanna go with youuuuu, I want to stay here with my friends!” was a common refrain from my kids—who could have predicted that? Complimentary youth programs on Dinogo Ships cater to kids aged 6 months to 17 years, filled with fun, age-appropriate activities. Your children can embark on treasure hunts, learn circus skills, or engage in creative expressions like dancing and singing. Beyond youth programs, the whole family can enjoy outdoor activities including swimming pools, waterslides, mini-golf, climbing walls, and even bowling. Involving your kids in choosing shore excursions makes them feel part of the decision-making, leading to an exciting and engaging experience.
When I now ask my kids about their cruise experiences, they recall the fun and new friendships they formed. Isn't that what travel is truly about?
