fun

I gave this to a friend and he absolutly loved it, we are in are 30's and it was just great to break up the politics at work.

A Great Book

I bought this to help with ideas for my sons fifth birthday. It had lots of great crafts, decoration ideas, food, games, etc. It even came with a little paper hat, a paper gold earring, a paper eyepatch, and paper pieces for a game that was included in the back. The only thing I wasn't happy with was the food and the only thing I've made the kids was the Grog. The rest of the stuff was sugar filled junk that the kids would adore but would make the parents shudder. All in all, a great little book that I was proud to add to my library.

pirate craft book

This book is featured at the Royal Yacht Britannia gift shop in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is well written and humorous. And has lots of crafts with a pirate theme. Recommended for pirates over 6.

How to be a Pirate

Bought this book as a gift for a six year old boy and it has been a HUGE hit with him. Lots of activities to do and includes a mask.
