You're welcome. I am not creative and couldn't think of anything myself. Everyone else's ideas really helped!

We just booked for our family of 4. 6 yo girl and 3 yo boy. They ran a kids go free promotion and we couldn't pass it up.

I've been on cruise critic for a while but what is an FE group?

Hi and welcome!

An FE is short for "fish extender"...there is a little hook outside every stateroom that has a metal fish on it. A fish extender is a pocket hanger you hang on the hook so friends and fellow shipmates can leave you messages or goodies inside the pockets. (You can find examples of FE's on etsy.com or ebay. The FE group basically signs up to participate in a gift exchange while on board. During the cruise, you decide when, you leave everyone on the FE list a gift in their FE pockets. The gifts should be pretty small to fit in the pockets and there are FE ideas all over the web and on this site.

Its a lot of fun! I have an FE that has a pocket for each child and they loved checking their pockets for gifts every time we went back to our stateroom. Its like a little surprise waiting for you and can happen at any time!

We did this for the first time on our last disney cruise to Alaska and it was a BLAST! We had over 100 participants because it was the inaugural sailing up there, so lots of FE enthusiasts, and you should have seen the gifts we got! Anything and everything from candy and bookmarks to a pair of gloves for each person in our stateroom! I'll dig out a pic and show you...its a blast!

Here's the pic of the FE gifts we got from the Alaska cruise...minus the shirts. Those are from the Friendship Rocks show (put on by the kids.)

So do we know how many we have on the FE list yet?

And anyone have boys around 6-8? My two are always looking for friends onboard!

I have a son, Wyatt that is 7.

We also have a son, Logan, who is 6.

Monica281 · 11-05-2012, 09:19 AM

We are booked! We live just south of Houston so it was a no brainer to go while the ships are so close!

We were just at Disney World for ten days in December 2011 but we can't wait to go back even for just one day!

We did a Disney Cruise for our Honeymoon many years ago but this will be our three year old son's first cruise.
