I know that we have been talking about the different youth activities that your children can enjoy on the Disney cruise line. I was concerned that my 14 year old would not be able to find activities that he would enjoy. There are two great clubs just for teens and tweens.
There is a special lounge available exclusively to tweens-children (11 to 14 years of age.) It is called Edge.
On Disney’s Magic and Wonder there is an interactive space that is designed to look like the ship’s bridge. This is where you can steer a virtual ship, play videogames, watch television and participate in arts and crafts. There is also karaoke, scavenger hunts and special themed nights. The space features kid-friendly computers, videogame consoles with the latest games and plush couches for relaxing with new friends.
On the Dream and Fantasy you have hi-tech entertainment including an illuminated dance floor, notebook computers and a state-of-the-art video wall stretching 18 feet long and nearly 5 feet tall with 18 individual LCD screens. Edge’s prime location offers views of the pool decks below with portholes providing silhouetted views of Aqua Duck riders as they zoom through the water coaster. Plus thanks to green screen rooms, kids can superimpose their image in both photo postcards and video karaoke. Tyler loved it!! I was a little apprehensive because you do not sign your child in, they are free to come and go as they pleased. One of the counselors told us that to use the wave phones that are in the stateroom to be able to keep in contact with your not so little one.
The teen only club is called Vibe. This is an exclusive space for those ages 14 through 17. Here you can listen to music, watch television, play videogames or take part in a number of other activities which are chaperoned by cast counselor.
The Wonder and Magic are designed to resemble a college dorm recreation room or hip urban coffee shop. There are plush couches, a dance floor, a mirrored wall and a bar with stools. This club offers the opportunity for teens to socialize with the peers. With flat-screen televisions, videogames, board games, DVD players and a wide range of fun activities like dance parties and karaoke.
On the Fantasy and Dream this club is set up as an indoor/outdoor lounge. It has the look and feel of a hip urban coffee shop and stylish nightclub with movable furniture and cushy chairs to relax in style. This club features a coffee bar; multi-screen video wall and a media room for catching a movie on a 103-inch LCD screen with digital surround sound. A lighted, multi-color disco floor and video wall set the stage for dance parties, where aspiring DJs can spin and mix tracks. For a laid-back experience, teens can recline in individual nooks and watch a personal video screen or play video games. There is also a private outdoor deck, which provides fun in the sun with mod chairs, and chaise lounges for sunbathing plus “splash” pools, fountains to cool off. There are also deck games such as Ping-Pong, foosball and a giant checkerboard.
When you think of all the activities that teens and tweens can do, you know that they will enjoy cruising just as much as you will.
