There are no dedicated children's facilities onboard Ocean Princess. If there are 20 or more kids on a given sailing, a special counselor will be assigned to run youth programs (this happens most often during the holiday season: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year's). This was not the case on our cruise, though the few kids we did see onboard were well behaved, enjoying the pool by day and shuffleboard by night. If your kids are content to play board games after a busy day in port, this ship may work; however, we wouldn't recommend this ship for families accustomed to the extensive facilities onboard today's mega ships.
