Only a Disney Cruise Line vacation gives you so many ways to play together, and separately. With practically an entire deck devoted to kids, there's non-stop fun each day from 9 a.m. to midnight for five distinct age groups. Kids ages 3 to 7 make magic at Disney's Oceaneer Club. Kids 8 to 12 explore the universe at Disney's Oceaneer Lab. Teens enjoy their own private hangout at a New York-style coffeehouse called Common Grounds. And with your kids practically begging to join their new friends each day, you might be tempted to engage in a little fun of your own, from relaxing in an adult-only pool area, to daily activities like wine-tasting or cooking demonstrations. The Disney web site is loaded with descriptions of activities, food, and fun. Here's just a sample of what Disney has planned for your kids.
Activities for Kids (Ages 3-7)
Only Disney can take little cruisers on a daily voyage to a world devoted to fun and fantasy. Disney's Oceaneer Club offers age-specific activities guaranteed to transport young minds to the edge of their imagination. Guided along the way by Disney counselors, of course. And, as an added convenience, parents are given pagers so families are always in touch. Here are some examples of activities at the Oceaneer Club.
Ages 3-4
Mouseketeer Training/Inspection
Children train to be Mouseketeers, practice marching, match up Disney Friends, watch a video clip of 1950's Mouseketeer show opening. MICKEY MOUSE comes to inspect his new Mouseketeers and lead them in a march to the Lab.
Where's Tinkerbelle
An adventure with clues to help find Tink's hiding place. Hopefully she will make a very magical appearance.
Hats off to Peter Pan
Help celebrate everybody's birthday in Never Land, but watch out for Captain Hook who wants to break up the party.
Ages 5-7
So You Want to be a Pirate?
There's a pirate on board! Never fear, he's only on hand to tell children adventurous stories tracing the history of buccaneers through time. Captain Hook may even stop by to visit his old friend.
Eggsperiments
Young scientists will discover things you can do with one household egg. Things that you would never thought was possible.

We of course can not list all the activities they have.
