Ha! 😀 So agree....it's the boardie helping that I love. Truly great people go to the rock!
A neighbor in Negril took her family while we were there and they really liked it. She said it was 300 bucks for the 4 of them - not sure how that breaks down per adults and kids.
When our son was around 8? we took him to Beaches for the day. It is very expensive, and you feel as is you need to then eat and drink yourself into oblivion. But thats hard to do because the food wasn't great, and was family oriented and them-park quality (think pizza, chicken strips, commercial patties). We didn't have a group of resort friends because we hadn't been there until right that minute, so it just wasn't optimal.
That same year we went to the Water Park. It was brand spankin' new - like literally the first few weeks. It was school day in Jamaica, so no local kids field trips there, and honest to God I swear - we were the only three people in the WHOLE ENTIRE place. Staff would follow us around from one amusement to the next turning it on, and acting a lifeguards. Ir was crazy. Toward to middle of the afternoon a couple of women came in who were very nice.
I understand that there is a lot of activity during school vacations when kids come in, or for end of school treat, but I'm not aware of the lots of foreign coming in. It's been a long time since they opened, so maybe they are more well known among visitors, but if not, it could be a lonely venture and not what you are looking for in terms of pals for your grandkids.

i'm *guess-ing*
that your trip is 'round Easter-break/vacation na tru
so,
fortunately, Jamaica is on break, TOO ::::: which means the Ja-pickney is on break TOO. ::::::: and that weekend, pickney & families will be out & about on outings of various types. ::::: such as::::>>>> a day at the beach ::::: @ Negril beach
so,
go to one of the 2-3 public beach areas in Negril
and let YOUR-pickney, hang-out with the resident-pickney
........3-9 year old children have *way* of quickly making friends, with others their age
.................on numerous occasions i've seen from-foreign pickney glee-fully frolicking with resident-pickney on the beach-front
in fact,
you-TOO might make some new *friends* ==== with pickneys' peer-rants
Jamaicans like to *friend* ---------- on-island 'friend' is a verb
a good place to go
is the beach area
down by Cosmos
usually big gatherings der on holiday weekends, such as Easter
finally:::::>>> PLEASE:::>>>> post something to let us ~~~ your fellow boardies ~~~ know how things turn out, please.
