Have a Pirate Play Date

Let me introduce myself… my name is Gina, and I have a little blog called East Coast Mommy. I am so excited to be visiting {here at Imagination Soup} and sharing a little Pirate Fun with you.

Want to play with us? You can have your own {easy and inexpensive} Pirate Play Date in three simple steps.

Step 1 – Build a pirate ship out of an old box. {As you can see, it doesn’t have to be fancy. We cut the top off the box, colored it, and added a paper plate steering wheel and a flag.}

Step 2 – Dress like a pirate. We had jeans (with holes in them) and old shirts that we cut off to make “pirate shirts and pants”. We also used a cup and tin foil to make a “pirate hook”. (I got the idea for the hooks here.) We added some hats and eye patches out of our dress up box.

Step 3 – Read pirate books, and eat pirate food (peanut butter sandwiches cut out in the shape of fish).

That’s it! An afternoon full of pirate adventure in three easy steps. I hope you have enjoyed our time together as much as I have. Feel free to stop by and visit me anytime. 🙂
