Your kids didn't do the heated pools and slides, go karts, laser tag, splash academy, the game room, the pub games, the Ferrari Racing Game in the duty free shop, play mini-golf, play the WiiU on the big screen, participate in the Family Game Night show, eat all the ice cream to the heart's content, or play any board games in the library? There is no way possible to be bored all 7 days!!!! This is not the place to get free things for a "bad cruise"

Did you not know there is programming for young kids everyday, all day long? Or are you just a complainer?

Thanks for the review. Next time try the Breakaway, Epic, or Getaway. They are more kid friendly ships with more kid minded itineraries like the Bahamas, Great Stirup Caye, or even Cozumel. Harvest Caye is also great for a beach day. In other words: Alaska is not really an itinerary for children. That's mostly for older cruisers, and couples.

Were they too young for laser tag and go-carts? Was it too cold for the pool and slides?

WOW. I am surprised to read that. I thought the Bliss, like the Escape, Splash Academy, a kids pool and water slides. When we were on the Escape people raced about the activity for kids. Could it be that your poor review was due to kids not being allowed in the adult pools and hot tubs?
