Twist N Spout slide on the Magic

[DannyDisneyFreak]

Does anyone know the age/hight requirements for the kids slide on the Magic? My 5 year old (then 4) loved the Mickey slide on the Dream and wants to go on the one on the Magic but I'm afraid he won't be able to. I hope he can he was saying the slide was one of his favorite things on our last cruise.

Well that's really disappointing, when I asked him what he was most looking forward to he said the slide it really sucks that they made the "kids" slide so limited for younger kids.

Don't hold me to this, but I could have sworn the early Magic cruisers after the re-imagining mentioned the sign had a tape across it, meaning they removed the maximum height and only the required minimum remained in place.

Yes, I just did a search and Emily (Silverfox97) did confirm and posted a picture showing the picture of it and only the min was there - not the maximum.

Not sure if it's changed recently and we'll be checking out the Magic in a few weeks so we'll see

Having been decked by a rowdy 8 year old while playing with my toddler, I can tell you that Nemo's Reef is not 3 and under. It's 8 and under and even that is not enforced unless you ask them to enforce it.

Good news, I just measured him and he is just over 38". He is short for his age so I assumed he would be too short

When were on mid November, I stood and watched as they removed the taped off max height piece and replaced it with a piece that had no max height. The main sign still had the max height taped off, that will probably stay that way for a while. It appears that they made it a family slide like they had promised. It was fun, surprisingly fast, but only went once, due to loving the aqua dunk way more.

On the Fantasy my son was not tall enough to go on the Mickey slide. I was very disappointed as we measured him at home and he should have been tall enough but the CM said no. I actually tried with a second CM. He was a sliver off. She turned him away too. Then we got to Castaway Cay and he was tall enough to go on Pelican Plunge. So my child was not able to go down a basic slide that ended on a flat surface but could go down a twisty enclosed slide that was fast and plunged into the ocean. Made absolutely no sense.

My ten year old has already blown past the maximum height.

Are they really strict on the height requirement of 48 inches on the Aqua Dunk (Magic)? I will have one very close to that height when we sail in April. Thanks!

We had the same thing on the Mickey slide - measured at the doctor right before and was tall enough but they turned her away. She was disappointed after waiting in line. We didn't try again. We finally found the line on the wall for the min height and she was right below it-barely!

Yes, but I saw a lifeguard do everything he could to get a young boy who was right at the limit measured so he could ride, and gave him an armband so he could go again.
