aruba, St Thomas or St Marten with small kids?
Which do you think is easier with small kids, 9 yrs old, 6 and 3?
We've been to aruba and liked it.
Is there more for kids in St Thomas?
we'd be staying at a marriott timeshare.

Aruba. We have a timeshare at the Playa Linda and have been going since they opened. As you know, so much for everyone to do

But I don't remember there being too much to do in Aruba besides beach and pool. I know things are in walking distance which is great. But other than that, what am I forgetting?

I remember thinking when I was in St.Marten that it would be a nice place to bring the kids back to. Oyster Beach seemed kid-friendly with many beach activities, and a resort like feel.

Re: aruba, St Thomas or St Marten with small kids?
I have been to all 3, but St Marten and St Thomas from a ship. My IL's have a timeshare in Aruba and have been going every year. It's at the Marriott and there's a lot for kids... My boys are 7 and 5. They did the lazy river, spray ground, fed iguanas, water slide is there, a ton of beach toys and they do just play in the beach and pool. I feel like all islands are the same. I'm sure there are places to take the kids, but for me sitting on the beach or by the pool is enough. Back at home we do plenty of touring or go to cities and tour.
In Aruba most places are within walking distance, kid friendly restaurants, bowling alley, shopping, etc.
I'm sure you'll find all the same at the other islands. The timeshare did do some art activities and other stuff for the kids. We did a boat ride one day too, which was amazing.

Aruba has a lot to do in town. St Thomas is much smaller with much less to do. There is the aquarium there but it takes maybe 3 hours to do the whole thing. Beaches in Turks and Caicos is really good for kids but expensive.
