Ahoy thar Matey! Captain Aiden and his crew of 13 pirates celebrated his 6th birthday in grand style.
They came as sweet young things but were soon loud, wild, rambunctious pirates. It is amazing how a bandanna, an eye patch and a balloon sword can transform a person.
The activities started off with a fierce sword battle of bubble popping. It was a close one but I think the bubbles may have won. The wind was in their favour.
The decks were swabbed and the flags were laid out to have each pirates personal symbol added to them. The bubble battle and flag making turned out to be hungry and thirsty work so some grog and pirate pies were served.
They were then off to collect a piece of treasure map and find three others who had a piece of the same map. Once they pieced the map together they went to hunt for treasure.
After the booty was divvied up, there was happy birthday to sing, birthday cake to be had and prezzies to open. Last but not least, there were ship races to prove which pirates had the fastest ship and Captain Aiden had each pirate walk the plank in order to collect more booty and then head for the high seas. All in all it was great fun and the kids had a blast.

Looks like it was an Awesome Birthday! The games and activities must have been a blast - and the cake is amazing! Very well done, Roo. :)
Hope you're enjoying being six now Aiden.
Love & Hugs, from Gramma & Pat
Ditto to the comment re the cake - awesome. I'd like to be six again, I don't recall ever having a party like that. I think you could go into business organising children's birthday parties Roo. I hear it's quite big business these days with mums trying to outdo one another - I can't see anyone beating your efforts though - very creative and it looks like everyone had a real blast. Well done :-)
