## Resource

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.
