Disney Cruise Line nursery information

“it’s a small world” nursery

“it’s a small world” nursery! consists of 3 distinct areas:
An acclimation zone, designed to help youngsters adjust to their new environment
A main play area featuring a 3D façade of the "small world" attraction, filled with hidden interactive delights
A separate quiet room for naps

A soft-surface floor traversed by a “river” is set up with colorful, kid-sized tables and chairs that allow toddlers to enjoy books, toys and games as Disney movies play on a large flat-screen TV. Here, your little ones can make new friends under the supervision of caring, highly trained counselors. Parents wishing to check on their children can even take a peek, unnoticed, through a window into the nursery’s main play area.

While activities at “it’s a small world” nursery! are unscheduled and will vary depending on your child’s mood, programs like movie time, story time, and arts and crafts projects will keep tots engaged and smiling from ear to ear.

As daily operating hours may vary, please check the Personal Navigator newsletter or Disney Cruise Line Navigator mobile app while onboard the ship.
