Summary
Is the Disney Destiny worth sailing with truly young kids? Jessica — a listener from Southern California — answered our call for families who sailed the Destiny with younger ages, and her experience covering a nine-year-old, a seven-year-old, and an almost-three-year-old hits just about every scenario parents wonder about. From a toddler with deeply held opinions about the nursery to a seven-year-old who had to be physically extracted from the Oceaneers Club, this is the on-the-ground Destiny family intel you've been looking for. In this episode: Why the villain characters on the Destiny are genuinely exceptional — including what happened when Jessica asked Dr. Facilier to turn her son into a frog The Oceaneers Club age sweet spot: why seven-year-olds are obsessed and nine-year-olds are already aging out What happens when your toddler flatly refuses the nursery — and which onboard activities actually worked for an almost-three-year-old What to expect from Dr. Facilier's Parlor, Troublemaking with Cruella, and Maleficent Under Her Spell before you add them to your schedule The Hercules seat-saving showdown that earned Jessica a high five from a total stranger ✈️ A pre-cruise stop in Atlanta covering the Georgia Aquarium and the Center for Puppetry Arts — Sam is very jealous about the Muppets exhibit "My seven-year-old loved the kids club.
