Dreaming of: Cruising with Kids (Again and again and again)

by Amy @ The Q Family on May 10, 2010

This Monday I have so many dreams. Most of them involve traveling to many places with my family.

The most vivid one for me today however is the dream of going back on the big ship and cruising again to fun places in different port of call. I wouldn’t call us an expert in cruising by any means. We have only been to Disney Cruise and Carnival Cruise with our kids. But I can say that cruising with kids is one of our favorite non-stress vacation we have had.

It also helps to have been following Randy from The Lollipop Road as he is live-blogging and tweeting from the sea.

Check out a month long event from his blog as he talks about his experience on board 3 of the most popular cruise lines – Carnival, Disney and Norwegian.

So far, I have enjoyed reading about the shore excursions which Randy provided insightful information on DIY vs Cruise Line tour, the review of kid’s programs from both Camp Carnival and Disney’s Oceaneer Club, and the tips & tricks for family cruising.

Now, there is more to this month-long program than just information to help family understand and gain more information on cruising with kids, they will also give out the prizes at the end of this event. All you have to do is check out their event page to see how you can enter for a chance to win a prize.

Can’t wait to go cruising with the kids too. Maybe next year my little one will be big enough to really enjoy the kids programs.

We would love to try our next cruise with RCL. :) I think you will have fun at the cruise. We did.

I keep trying to convince hubby to try a cruise. I almost had him, but then we discovered that most cruise lines don’t have rooms large enough to accommodate a family of 5 (unless you get adjoining rooms, which my kids aren’t old enough for yet).

Do you have any tips for cruising with a larger family? I’m determined to get our brood a ship before my DD graduates high school (she’s in 3rd grade now)! LOL

That’s a great question! I will do some research and let you know what I find out. :)
