I would say with a child that age The Disney Cruise Line would be the
best for child activities. It also depends on how your child reacts
to being dropped off without mom or dad all day--I know my nieces and
nephews have no problem because they goto daycare and day camp in
their normal routines at home so they have a good time and so does Mom/
Dad. We also mix in family time and club time.

Just adding---Unfortunately Disney Cruises are more expensive than the
others but they do have the best in children entertainment and
catering to families--you can also find a lot if you don't have kids
in tow unless you are looking for a casino. I would say that I would
be nervous with a young one running around on any cruise ship--I know
some areas there is a plastic covering near the railings and i
probably would not let my child out on the balcony without supervision
and i know some kids figure out how to get out on the balcony when you
are not looking.
