Your child is about to celebrate a milestone and he can hardly wait for the event that you are going to plan. You know he wants a pirate birthday party NJ style and you will do anything within your power to make it the most spectacular gathering ever. Middletown, NJ, has many venues that will have just what you need to throw a spectacular event.
The only problem is that you don't quite know where to begin. There is so much to consider. Decorations, door prizes, goody bags, games, crafts, food, and invitations are just a few things on your long list to consider. This theme is so intriguing and you can't wait to begin the preparations.
The invitations should be your very first consideration. Ready-made designs are always in good taste but you can also make your own. This does take time, creativity, and extra funds for materials and postage. Choose or make the best ones that fit your youngster's age or interests. A ship or map motif is always interesting. A aged map could be the main design with directions to your house.
Select an appropriate costume for the young guest of honor. He can wear it as he greets all of his guests at the front door. This apparel should reflect the theme of the event. An eye patch, short breeches or knickers, an arm hook, and hat would look great on any child. Complete it with a stuffed parrot on his arm or shoulder. Ask invitees to wear their own versions of costumes that would fit the theme.
The decorations will be your biggest challenge. They will depend on the space you have available, your budget, and your decorative abilities. Enlist the help of other mothers who may have skills that you are deficient in. The centerpieces can simply be pirate ships. Fill them with candy, trinkets, and treasures for extra impact. Use an anchor theme for your paper or plastic plates. Decorate the area with treasure maps, more anchors, ship flags, and skull and cross-bone banners.
Games could include a treasure hunt with each child or team having their own map. Clues will lead them to fantastic prizes. They can also make triangular hats from paper and pirate hooks from large plastic cups and aluminum foil. A themed pinata would also be a great touch.
Have the cake made to resemble a filled treasure chest or ship. You can also make cupcakes with skull and cross-bone, anchor, or ship designs on them. For a healthy slant, cut and shape a watermelon into a boat. Add a mast and sail and fill with fresh fruit such as strawberries, grapes, watermelon, and cantaloupe. Fashion goody bags and fill with tiny pirates, chocolate coins, and more. Or give each guest a miniature treasure chest filled with candy and tiny toys.
Take pictures of this event so it will be remembered for years. A party such as this will have you really wondering how you are going to top this next year. On the plus side, you will be better equipped and more knowledgeable about throwing a fun and creative children's party.
