Pirate Party!

Pirates are on the rise and getting more and more popular. There is a good chance that your child has seen and loves the show Jake and the Never Land Pirates, Peter Pan, or even Pirates of the Caribbean and would love for you to throw a birthday party that is sure to shiver some timbers.

A message in the bottle can make such great party invite. The bottle can include a treasure map with directions to the party destination or you could use the bottles to lead the party guests on a hunt for hidden treasure. 



This cake is so easy to make and can be a very convincing pirate hat. All you need is a round cake pan. Cut the cake right down the center and they cut one of those halves into half again and stand them on edge to make a great cake.

If you are a tad artistic a watermelon shark could be your calling. It will definitely be a focus point of the food display and you will amaze all the other parents. It really is easier than it looks and since summer is getting started watermelon prices will be going down so try it out.

Simple burlap sacks with "X's" to mark where the treasure is will make great goody bags. It would be fun to even make them search for treats with a scavenger hunt.

Such a fun game to play is a ring toss with pirate hooks. You can find the hooks at party stores or sometimes even dollar stores.

While bananas are not typically a party food these banana pirates would make a great addition to your get together. Very cute and very simple to make.

These are some of the cutest dipped marshmallows I've seen. Just dip the top is some white chocolate with red food coloring and use a food coloring pen to adorn them with pirate faces.
