[quote=Anonymous]We did the four night Dream cruise with a four year old and a seven year old. We had done two previous Royal Caribbean cruises without the kids. Our kids picked and choosed what they wanted to do in the kids club-- you get a daily schedule and we would make suggestions to them. Our seven year old loved the science experiments (went three times) and the four year old loved the character activities...she did one with Tinkerbelle and one with Captain Hook. She also loved creating fairies with different outfits on the computers. The seven year old played on the computers some, and played some kickball games. We went to one show at night and one matinee, and skipped with more evil one because. We spent VERY little money besides the 2000$ for the cruise (I know prices have gone way up since we booked it 1 1/2 years ago). We did not do an excursion on Nassau . The best there for small kids would be the swim with stingrays which is around 50$ a person I think. We just stayed onboard since everything is open that day, including the kids club. At Castaway Cay there is no kids club onboard since there is on the island, though I barely saw any kids using it. We sat and enjoyed the beach, waterslides, and food. No one is pushing drinks there, though I have to say if someone had come by with a fruity concoction I would have bought one! Royal Caribbean pushes the alcohol way more than Disney, which I generally don't care for as I am not a big drinker. I digress...the only money we spent on the private island was a ridiculous 18$ on sand toys ( take a few of your own!) and 12$ on bikes for two people plus the four year old on the back of one of them.  No need for excursions with small kids! We did not even get to the movie theatre on board though the kids would sit in the pool and watch Peter pan on a huge screen. Very few adults in the pools....mostly on e edge. It was too loud for my parents to sit at the pools for long so they would go in the adult area. I am not into Disney at all, so the cruise was my compromise and I thought it was fantastic. The rooms are thoughtful for families with a curtain and a little bigger in size. We had an outside deluxe room, no balcony, and it was perfect. We also did one day at Disney and spent no time doing character stuff at all since we had seen tons of characters on the ships.
