Oh been there done that!! It depends of the kids...You will see on your first dinner how things go but make sure you discuss with the waiter (without being a pain) for your the rest of the week like having the kids favorite drink or fruit bowl when you get to your table. You choose the kids meal first so the crew can serve them quickly. Also, you can bring their favorite entertainment at the table with you....(Ipad with fav movie)....I know it sounds bad parenting but people around you have the choice to look at a kid watching a movie quietly or to have a kid screaming is lungs out or running all over the place. The windjammer is another option if you feel the dinning room is not an option....you're in and out quickly and you can enjoy the ship while people are having dinner. The kids club as well is good of you want some me time... Remember, you have the ship's time, Island time and kids time...So no panic, you are on vacation.
