Welcome to the Royal Caribbean blog podcast, a weekly look into the world of Royal Caribbean cruising.

I'm your house Matt Hodgeberg, and this is episode number 22.

This week, I want to talk all about going on a Royal Caribbean cruise with kids.

Family cruising has never been more popular, and frankly, I think Royal Caribbean is a terrific choice for cruising with kids, both young and old.

state room options when cruising with children and, of course, dining with kids.

Here we go.

request for a show cruising with kids, different age kids. I have a new baby and them always love new information about topics I'm not completely

if they have kids.

And you know what?

I've had the chance to try it myself.

I have a three-year-old who's been on three cruises so far, not counting a fourth

cruise when she was in utero. So cruising with kids, especially young children, is a concern of a number of our blog

readers who've emailed me.

So this week, I wanted to discuss why cruising in Royal Caribbean with young children can be a

great vacation and what to expect with young kids.
