There is nothing more fun than dressing up with your friends to really get into the spirit of a birthday party theme! Most kids, even the shy ones, will light up and engage in the fun when given the chance to dress up. Use the instructions below to create a pirate costume and pirate sword for each child to enjoy throughout the party. And the best part is they get to take it home to dress up in whenever the mood fits!

Personalized Pirate Costumes

Pirate Costume Materials:

• 1 ½ yds Black Burlap fabric
• Rope (to tie around tunics)
• Dark T-Shirt Transfer Paper (Inkjet paper)
• Scissors
• Download of the Make It Mine Parties’ Pirate Costume Template (see Resources below). You will use this file to personalize each child’s costume with his/her very own pirate name! With names like “Captain Cole” & “Peg-Legged Jack,” each child will walk the pirate party plank in style. Examples of different pirate names are already formatted…just add each child’s name!
• Download of the Make It Mine Parties’ Pirate Costume Font (See Resources below). This font needs to be installed on your computer in order to create the cool pirate look of the personalized names.

Pirate Costume Instructions:

1. Take black burlap fabric fold in half. Cut 13″ widths of folded fabric. Cut out neckhole on each fold. You now have a pirate tunic ready for personalization. (You can double check the measurement against your own child and make adjustments as needed.)
2. Using the Pirate Costume Template, personalize a pirate name for each child. The birthday child should be “Captain (your child’s name)”. Have fun with the names!
3. Print each name on a sheet of Dark T-Shirt Transfer paper. You can fit as many names on one sheet as possible which will save paper & ink. The black ink will appear gray when it prints. Don’t worry, when the heat of the iron takes effect, it will come off black.
4. Cut around each pirate names and iron each name on the front of each costume. Now each child has their very own pirate tunic! Kids love to get into character and it gets them in the spirit of the pirate theme!
5. Cut lengths of rope for each child to tie around their waist to secure their tunics.

Pirate Swords

There are several affordable options for inflatable swords available from various sources. But for you do-it-yourself-ers out there who love to put a personal spin on it, here is a simple way to make swords that are fun to fight with and don’t hurt anyone.

Pirate Sword Materials:

• Foam insulation pipe covers cut into 30″ lengths. Found at your local hardware store. It is typically used to insulate your pipes from the cold.
• ¾ ” wooden dowels in 8″ lengths
• 1″x 2″ board cut into 4″ lengths
• Silver spray paint

Pirate Sword Instructions:

1. Take 1″x 2″ board & cut into 4″ lengths. Drill ¾” hole in center of each length.
2. Insert one dowel into each hole. Center the board on the dowel so there is an equal length of dowel on either side of 1″x 2″. Glue and let dry. One side of the dowel will be the handle and the other side will hold the foam sword.
3. Insert one end of dowel into foam insulation. Glue and let dry.
4. Once all glue has dried, spray paint each sword with silver spray paint and let dry.
5. For an added activity, you can let the kids decorate their swords with pirate stickers and jewels.

You now have a safe way to fight the pirates or walk the plank!
