Fish Extender Exchange for the March 16th Wonder Western Caribbean Cruise!
For those who are new to this idea, a Fish Extender (FE) itself is a pocket panel/bag you hang from the fish shaped hook outside your stateroom. Families that join the FE group hang their Fish Extender outside their cabin and then, as the cruise is underway, participants deliver little gifts to the others participating in the group by leaving them as a surprise in the fish extender pockets.... Sweet!! Who doesn't love presents!! It's a ton of fun, and not just for kids.
As far as the gifts... you can either give a larger general gift to each cabin, or smaller individual gifts to each person in the cabin. You can give gifts a few times throughout the cruise or just once. It is the thought that counts. There are no hardcore rules regarding gifts (no minimum or maximum dollar value). Gifts can be homemade or store-bought, Disney, non-Disney, totally up to you! The point is to have fun and share some magic.
Here are a couple of nice threads on the subject:

I will start a 'Master List' in the second post where I will keep track of the sign-ups with links to a Google spreadsheet. If you want to join, just post the following information on this thread.
For each FE to be hung:
Cabin ## (if you know it, it can be updated later)
Names of all participants including ages and genders of children
Any Allergies or Concerns
Any Celebrations
As we are just starting off, If anyone has any other ideas or suggestions, please post!! I can't wait to see our group grow!
