AIBU to book an 8yo into a 3-7yo activity (Centre Parcs)

We’re going to Centre Parcs with an extended group of friends and family with several children aged 3-8. I’ve been looking at what activities are available and most of them seem to be for ages 3-7 or 8-11. Do you think IABU to book the 8yo into some of the 3-7yo activities like Crazy Science or Cake Pops? She’s quite immature and small for 8 so she’d enjoy those activities and being able to do them with the others. Has anyone done this before or know how strict they are with the age restrictions? Do you think they’d check her age against our reservation?
Part of me thinks it isn’t a big deal but the other part feels guilty!

If you think she'd enjoy them then that's fine. We've asked before if we could book our then 8 year old into the "childcare" activities for 3-7 yr olds (chocolate chefs etc) and the staff said it was absolutely fine.

Sounds totally fine

Yep we did this for the same reason

That’s good to know that they didn’t seem to mind and it’s been done before sqidsin and MissDuke, Thanks!
