What this book is about
Going on a cruise is exciting - but it can also be overwhelming for young children. I Can Be Safe on a Cruise Ship helps parents prepare their kids for the real-world situations they will experience onboard, from busy buffets to crowded pools to meeting new people.
Through a friendly child narrator, young readers learn how to stay with their family, ask for help if they feel lost or unsafe, follow pool and sun safety rules, respect boundaries and avoid oversharing, and listen to parents and crew members.
This book is designed to be read before your trip and again during your cruise, giving parents natural moments to pause, talk, and reinforce safety skills.
Why parents choose this book:
It covers stranger safety and separation in a gentle, age-appropriate way, encourages children to speak up and ask for help, supports family conversations about rules and expectations, and is written by a child-safety educator and advocate.
Whether it’s your child’s first cruise or their fifth, this book helps turn vacation excitement into confidence and smart decision-making.
