My son will be turning 6 early July and we will be celebrating at the end of June (before school mates leave on Holidays). Usually we go somewhere for his birthday party, but as we have a Huge Disney Land and Sea Vacation coming up and other things that have come up, I thought we should tone down the spending this time around BUT still do something FUN!
He LOVES Pirates, so I would like to organize a Pirate Party for him.
We'll have his guests come dressed as Pirates (even just a T-shirt and jeans and bandanna if no one has an whole costume).
I'll make up some kind of Pirate Paty Invitation. We'll make some treasure maps that will lead them to the nearby park where they'll have to dig for treasure (chocolate gold coins and fancy marbles in zip lock bags buried in the park sand). Beyond that, what else can I do to keep some energetic 5 and 6 year old boys entertained? Any ideas will be truly appreciated. Oh, does anyone have pirate bag topper graphics? I'll use plain brown paper lunch bags but add a topper to them. What kind of loot for the loot bags to keep it Pirate Themed?

Hi Hon

Do you want Disney char Pirates ?

The BEST website for birthday ideas is www.birthdaypartyideas.com. It is a lot like this website where mom's post what they did for their children's parties for decorations, games, food, invites, etc. Take the time to look it up there is a thread just for pirate parties and I know you will find more than you need. Also, if you look a page or two past this first page...you will find some invites that I and Dom made. If you like one of them...we would be happy to replicate it for you just send one of us a private message with your request because we won't be looking in that thread.
 

Thanks everyone, VERY MUCH! This is all a HUGE help. I love the bag toppers, PERFECT, and the invite too! I'll check out the website mentioned, and I think we are then well on our way to planning this party!
Thanks again.
