What are the popular excursions with 6 year olds?

We have 2 6 year olds (twins) that will be with us on the 11/2 cruise. What are the more popular excursions for those with small kids on the 7 day eastern cruise?

Thanks... Paul

I am just posting a reply because I wanted to hop on this thread. We are doing an Eastern cruise in Jan '03 and our DS will be almost 6.

For what its worth, we spent most of our 3-day Wonder Cruise (we did a land-and-sea at the Poly) in the Mickey Mouse pool. Its all DS talks about now and with two days at sea, we may end up there again. However, I am interested in hearing about excursions for kids that age.

My son was 6 when we did the Eastern cruise and he really enjoyed the See and Sea in St. Maarten. We did the Island Tour in St. Thomas and he wasn't particularly thrilled with it. On the other hand, I really enjoyed that tour. I can't handle the sun, so we save our beach time for Castaway Cay. My son really loves the beach!

My kids were 7&9 and we did the Atlantis sub trip in St. Thomas and they loved it!!!!!! We also did the Golden Eagle catamaran
in St. Maarten and loved it also!! Some people got seasick but it was alot of fun especially when you come back into port singing YMCA!!!!!!

My daughter, at 5, LOVED the See and Sea. For our next cruise we're going to try a catamaran excursion since my daughter loved snorkeling so much on our last trip.
