With very few supplies one can make a wonderful Pirate party for the children to enjoy and most likely, the parents will actually have more fun than the children by watching the entertaining imaginations unfold. The imagination of younger children never ceases to amaze a parent. The fewer things they have, it seems, the more creative they become. That is why the underlying rule to a children's party is to provide only the necessities, allowing the child to work his growing imagination and at the same time, save on the parents pocketbook. Here are some great tips to have an awesome pirate party without spending an arm... and in the case of a unfortunate pirate, a leg as well.
The first question one needs to ask is what they feel makes a pirate look like a pirate. Simply make a list of what you feel completes the look: a wooden leg, a sword, a toucan, an eye patch, a missing tooth, a hook for a hand, pearly necklaces. The list could go on forever. Choose three or four key items that you would be able to supply the children with. The more creative you get, the cheaper this is likely to be.
To remain money smart, make use of resources that are available to you. The cheapest and most affordable resource (free) that is easy to come by is cardboard boxes. Breaking them down and using them for just about anything is somewhat time consuming but also fun when the kids are involved. It is entirely possible to make swords or eye patches out of cardboard boxes. Make a pattern, trace it on and cut out. For the pirates wooden leg you may be able to split the inside of a paper towel roll and place that around a child's calf. A toucan could actually be a sticker or pinned on cut out as well.
In today's society, children aren't always enticed to think on their own. No matter what you try or how much you decide to spend, remember to keep the kids involved and they will have a blast.
