Help me talk DH into Sandcastle Club

[RxforDisney]

Has anyone used the Sandcastle Club at the Beach Club? I would really like a night out to eat and have some adult time at Epcot, but DH has issues. I have read great things on the boards about the resort kid's clubs before, but can't remember specifics and am having a hard time convincing him.

Any experiences would be appreciated. We have a DD (6) and a DS (4).

Thanks!

We used in in December 2006 with my then 4 and 6 year olds, the kids had a ball, they loved it.
They have videogames, TV, crafts, toys, I think they had a puppet theater to play with..they were served dinner and get cookies and milk around 8 or 9 as a bedtime snack and then around 9..10?.. the kids can lay down and watch a Disney movie to relax/fall asleep.
We picked the kids up before the movie and they wished they had more time.

We went back to WDW in April and August 2007-didn't need to use it, but my kids were sorely disappointed, LOL, and have asked us to please please please let them go one night on our upcoming October trip.
Thumbs up from kids and parents in our family!

I am using them for the first time this May. At first I thought I would never do this. But with this trip being our 10th anniversary and the fact that we never vacation without our children, I started to consider it. I started a thread asking about it about a month or so ago. DH was still skeptical. But I got only positive responses. I told him that if I heard one bad thing I wouldn't do it. But everything I heard was wonderful. And as soon as I told my kids they had video games they were thrilled!! I'm guessing that they won't be ready to leave when we come back to get them in a few hours!

Here are the responses I got ~

We used it in Jan for our DS's 6 & 11. The youngest loved it, the oldest one was okay with it(most of the other kids were younger). They had fun and we were able to enjoy an adult dinner at Flying Fish.

Mine were disappointed when I picked them up!
