Random fact about me ….  I love all things Hard Rock!  I’m not even ashamed to tell you that I collect Hard Rock t-shirts.  Whether it’s the cafes, the collector pins and the resorts – I love it all!

And while I don’t think we’ll be taking any international trips with our girls anytime soon, I was excited to recently learn about the new family-friendly Little Big Clubs set to debut at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana and the Cancun Palace (soon to be Hard Rock Hotel Cancun in August 2012) and the Aventura Cove Palace (soon to be Hard Rock Hotel Riveria Maya in 2013) – just for kids!

These all-inclusive resorts have teamed up with Thomas & Friends, Barney, Bob the Builder and Angelina Ballerina to provide endless entertainment in kids clubs and outdoor activities – perfect for family vacations with the Little Big Clubs.

The first Little Big Clubs are slated to debut in June 2012 at Aventura Cove Palace and Cancun Palace, followed by the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana in July 2012.

No matter which character is your child’s favorite… it sounds like they’ve truly thought of everything with these new additions. Angelina Ballerina fans can imagine they are stars in their own show with interactive dance videos and dress up like a ballerina.  Train fans will love the super-sized Thomas train tables for construction fun and creative crafts.

We went to Punta Cana for our honeymoon and I’m hoping one day to get back there.  It’s a beautiful place with spectacular views.  The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana wasn’t built when we were there, but the all-inclusive resort we stayed at was our first experience with an all-inclusive property.  We found it to be pretty affordable.
