I came up with these ideas based on items we already had in our home – a completely FREE day of fun!
If you loved these ideas, you’ll want to check out the facebook page Bec’s Extraordinary Children, which has heaps of ideas for activities to do with young children based on daily themes!
Linking up with My Little Drummer Boys for sort of Wordless Wednesday.

This is brilliant. What an activity and what creativity. I must do this with Miss Possum. She loves pirates. Oh and that pirate ship lunch looked pretty spectacular. Well done!
What a great day of piratey fun.
I love the little pirate in his big boots.
what a great idea! looks like lots of fun.
What a fantastic idea! I particularly like the photo of him sailing the seas looking through his telescope. Looks like he had lots of fun with his Mummy (think I might have to borrow this idea).
what awesome fun!! Great idea!!
what awesome fun to have a theme play day.
Thanks for linking up
How much fun is this! Looks like the best day!
How lovely! Your pirate day reminds me of a pirate party my eldest son had when he was about 7… 15 years ago!
I love the treasure in the treasure chest, very imaginative. 🙂
