Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts is bringing back a popular event family travelers won’t want to miss. The Nick Jr. Friends Event is running through Nov. 2 at Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts in Punta Cana and Riviera Maya, Mexico. Young guests have the chance to meet and interact with their favorite characters from PAW Patrol, Blue’s Clues & You!, Dora the Explorer and more. This year, the event is packed with cooking classes, crafting, dance parties, themed menus and scavenger hunts.

 

At Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Punta Cana, younger travelers can create their own wearable Blue and Magenta ears, make a Blue’s Clues mailbox, handy dandy notebook and a microphone. Guests can also participate in engaging activities like dance parties, character meet-and-greets and photo opportunities. There will also be a story time with Dora and Boots, a Dora Friendship Fiesta with Chase and Marshall from Paw Patrol, a Paw Patrol Scavenger Hunt, and pirate hat making with Santiago of the Seas.

 

Over at Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Riviera Maya, little travelers can snap a picture with Blue and get her autograph stamp in their handy dandy notebook. Paw Patrol fans can embark on a cycling mission to become environmental heroes by helping sort recycling bins around the resort. Little ones can also participate in the Pup Pup Boogie Party with Chase, make Rainbow Mayan cones with Dora and stop at Butterbean’s Café to design their own cupcakes.

 

Book a trip now for exclusive savings of up to 35 percent and $750 in resort credit.
