favorite stars," said Rafael Chapur, Chief Operating Officer, All Inclusive Collection. "This is just one of many new
rock star experiences we will unveil at our rebranded resorts, as we strive to offer an unmatched vacation
experience."
Every kid is a rock star when visiting the All Inclusive Collection resorts in Mexico and the Dominican Republic, and
the stage has been set for an unforgettable vacation for its littlest guests. The newly redesigned kids' areas at
Aventura Cove Palace, Cancun Palace and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana will feature HIT Entertainment's
Little Big Club, offering an endless amount of themed activities starring the beloved characters, Thomas &
Friends, Barney, Bob the Builder and Angelina Ballerina.
Among the themed interactive play areas for kids at each Little Big Club are an Angelina Ballerina area, where little
girls imagine they are the stars of their own show, with interactive dance videos, a ballerina dress-up area and
more. The Thomas & Friends activity area is the ultimate play area for little engineers, featuring a super-sized
Thomas train table. In the Barney music area, the youngest lil' rockers will have a dino-mite time playing with

musical instruments, participating in sing-a-longs and learning with Barney. The Bob the Builder building and craft
area lets aspiring builders in on all the construction action, incorporating building blocks, child-safe tools and
creative craft activities.
Each Little Big Club will also have its own mini-theater so kids can participate in movie nights, dance classes,
talent shows and karaoke, making them the real stars of the show. A weekly live show, produced by RWS and
Associates, will entertain kids of all ages as their favorite characters form their own rock band. RWS and Associates
is a full service entertainment firm that provides the very best in custom-designed as well as pre-packaged events
and productions worldwide. In addition, the Little Big Club will offer interactive character meet and greets during
story time and other exciting activities. Aventura Cove Palace – one of the top family resorts in the Caribbean – will
also feature a Thomas the Tank Engine® attraction where kids can take a ride on Thomas around the resort's kids'
area.
"HIT's characters are loved around the world, and we're thrilled to work with the All Inclusive Collection to provide
their littlest guests the ultimate star-studded vacation experience alongside our stars, Thomas the Tank Engine,
Barney, Bob the Builder and Angelina Ballerina," said Pam Westman, Executive Vice President, The Americas, HIT
Entertainment. "Adults can enjoy the All Inclusive Collection's top notch offerings, and they can also completely
relax knowing that their kids will be entertained by HIT's trusted and beloved brands."
The Little Big Club also extends to outdoor play areas. Kids visiting Aventura Cove Palace and Cancun Palace can
enjoy fun in the sun at the interactive Thomas & Friends and Bob the Builder themed Splash Park with shooting
water fountains. The littlest guests at Aventura Cove Palace can play at Barney's Tree House, an interactive play
area. The custom themed Bob the Builder sandboxes, found at both Aventura Cove Palace, Cancun Palace and
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana, resemble a sandy construction site where kids can enjoy sandcastle
competitions and playing with Bob the Builder Machine Team replicas and sand toys.
The Little Big Club and all of the exciting installations and activities from the All Inclusive Collection and HIT
Entertainment are free to families as part of the all inclusive offerings found at the All Inclusive Collection resorts in
Mexico and Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. 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.
Guests of the All Inclusive Collection can also take advantage of the Kids Stay Free Summer promotion, valid for
booking now through Aug. 27, 2012 for travel June 1 through Aug. 31, 2012 at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Punta
Cana, Cancun Palace and Aventura Cove Palace. When guests book three nights or more, two kids ages 12 and
under sharing a room with a minimum of one adult can stay and eat for free! The Kids Stay Free promotion can
also be combined with the $1,500 Resort Credit promotion, making an All-Inclusive Collection resort the best
