We%26#039;ve already booked a cruise on Norwiegan Cruise Lines to the Mexican Riviera. We%26#039;re taking our 21 month old and almost 5 year old kids with us. We%26#039;ll have extended family with us to help out as well.
I%26#039;m trying to think of everything we%26#039;ll need and I%26#039;m sure there will be things that I can%26#039;t come up with on my own. Any suggestions?
I%26#039;ve already bought the cloth swim diapers (they don%26#039;t allow the disposable kind). I have water shoes for both kids. We have a brand new bottle of sunblock. We%26#039;ll obviously take children%26#039;s medicines with us just in case. We%26#039;re driving their so we%26#039;ll have some things to keep them entertained in the car.
It%26#039;s difficult planning for such a multi-faceted vacation -car trip, hotel stay, cruise, and shore excursions. We%26#039;ve been on a cruise before, but never with kids.
Thanks in advance for all your help!
Advice for cruise travel with young children?
You already sound pretty prepared, the rest is really up to your parenting style!
As long as the kids see it as rewally fun, it won%26#039;t be hard at all. The moment they get bored is when its going to be a parental nightmare.
If the cruise has a nanny-service for some of the time, that could give you guys some time off to do %26quot;grown-up things%26quot;. Holidays with kids are a wonderful and bpnding experience, but it leaves very little time for the adults to actually do what they want to.
I hope you guys find the perfect balance! There is no advice I can give you that you probably haven%26#039;t already considered :D

Reply:i took a small blow up two ring pool on my cruise.i blew it up and placed it next to my beach chair(there are no baby pools on a cruise)for my child to play and at night i used it for a tub because there are none.i also would bring some dish detergent to wash sippy cups with as you will probably need them.also some kind of swimmies for your older child as the pools are deep.also..i always pack some kind of double sided velco strips ,come in handy to block off a room that small with a sheet or something.it will give you some privacy to read or watch tv without the kids seeing you.i managed and it was great...have fun oh yeah...bring a dvd player and some of their movies for entertainment.
Reply:Don%26#039;t....just go with your husband and leave the kids with your mother. Trust me.
