Location: Deck 5 Midship, Disney Magic
In the middle of Deck 5 aboard the Disney Magic,
younger guests can visit the Oceaneer Club while right next door is
the It's a Small World Nursery. While the two aren't connected (like
the Oceaneer Lab and Club are) the transition from one to the next
is very subtle, but needs to be explored!
While the It's a Small World Nursery and the
Oceaneer Club are for completely different age groups, the hallway
between them connects the two in a very interesting way. In between,
guests can find three groups of pictures. Closer to the Oceaneer
Club are posters for the sections of the Oceaneers Club (Mickey
Mouse Club, Andy's Room, Pixie Hollow, and Avengers Academy). Closer
to the It's a Small World Nursery are a few pictures focusing around
the 1934 Mickey Mouse short cartoon, Orphan's
Benefit while in between the two groups of pictures from the
1937 Silly Symphony Cartoon, Woodland Cafe.



While looking at the three pictures close up there
doesn't seem to be anything too special about the placement of
pictures, you will see things in a different way once you take a
step back.

As you can see, the pictures closest to the It's a
Small World Nursery begin small and they get slightly bigger once we
hit the Woodland Cafe pictures. Finally,
the pictures featuring the locations for the Oceanneer's Club are
the largest. So why the different sizes? It gives guests, and
especially the young kids heading to the Oceaneer's Club a sense
that they are becoming larger in the world while they figuratively
travel from the It's a Small World Nursery (for little kids) to the
Oceaneer's Club (for older kids). This isn't the only way Disney
focuses on size on this deck, but we'll save that for another time.
