Hello Fellow Merrytime Cruisers,
This is my family's first
Disney Cruise, and we are wanting to get involved in the fish extenders group. We are not really sure how this process works. We have 8 people sailing with us (myself, my husband, my 6 year old son, my 3 year son, my mother, my sister, my 6 year old niece, and my brother-in-law. Do we give gifts once or every day?? Do we only give gifts for the kids or adults as well (either would be fine)?? If there is anything I am missing or did not think of, feel free to let me know.
We are very excited!!
Greetings
@Morgan0614! Welcome to the cruise thread and your first Disney cruise!
How you do your FE gifts if generally up to you. You could do a daily gift, but on a large ship, and with a longer sail date, this could become time consuming. There is never enough time to do the cruise activities as it is! Personally, we like to do one gift, which can be delivered at any time during the cruise, but that's our preference. But if you would like to do daily gifts, you are more than welcome to. Adults like to be included in the FE experience, and you will find many adult-only travelling parties that join, and as such, I have never experienced a kids-only FE group, although they may exist. All FE groups that I have been a part of, or have run, have had the option to do one of the following:
1. Stateroom Gift - one gift that is directed at the family/travelling party (e.g. a family/travelling party activity like playing cards, etc)
2. Individual Gifts - one gift tailored to the age of each participant in the room (e.g. keyrings for adults, bubbles for children)
3. Stateroom & Individual Child/ren Gifts - one gift that is directed at the family/travelling party, with additional individual gifts for the children
So, the whole process is pretty flexible. I will post more details shortly about the FE group, and will add you now. Just as a reminder, as a new member to the board, you will not have access to your private messages until you reach 10 posts. Final confirmation and FE group details will be issued via PM closer to the time.
Hope that helps. Please let me know if there is anything else I can help with
