Default Fish Extender Gifts

So crafty friends, help me out here. On our cruise in January, we are doing a fish extender exchange. We make or buy little gifts for other cabins and deliver them to pockets outside their room. I have no idea what to do and don't want to spend a fortune. Anyone have any good ideas for me? It's a Disney cruise, so preferably something Disney.

I bought little photo albums at the $1 and made up a scavenger hunt that I put on the back cover and on the front cover designed a commemorative cover with the dates of the cruise and each of the stops. The people in our group seemed to like it, and it was easy to transport!

I am really interested to see some of the ideas here. We are looking to go on a Disney cruise late in 2014 and I am really hoping to participate in fish extenders!

There are a few pinterest boards with great ideas. We are going later in 2014 and are considering making one of the following: paper bag scrapbooks, cruise survival kits, beach brushes or a photo mats with a colorful sharpie. I would love to hear what other ideas are out there.

I've look on pinterest and just nothing stands out. There are 19 cabins in our group and I just don't want to spend a fortune.

I am considering paracord zip pulls, mini scrapbooks, memo books or magnet calendars

What about some kind of lanyard or something to put your room key on? Maybe you could sew something like that?
Do you have a cutting machine? Clear dollar store frames with a Mickey Head would be a great gift.
Do you need a gift for each person or just for each cabin?

No, sewing machine or cutting machine.
They said either way, you can do one per person or per cabin.

The lanyard idea is really fun. How about duct tape lanyards with some Disney themed tape (or even just red with white polka dots, etc.)? Those are super easy to make... and cheap!

Maybe you can get someone to cut you some Mickey shapes out of vinyl and send them to you if you want to do something with vinyl...
