Why are pirates called pirates?
...Because they ARRGHHH!
Ahem, right ho! I've been a bit rubbish, so, I thought I'd start with a joke - a bad one, I know.
Mrs Fox's pirate parties are our most popular I blogged about them last year and I promised to put up printables for the invitations and thank you cards and other pirate party ideas. Since then we have done several more pirate parties and I have re-designed our pirate themed Mrs Fox's Pirate Party Box . The new designs are illustrated in the image below. At the bottom of this post are those printables I promised.
For whatever reason the Pirate Party is a firm favourite with children, boys and girls alike. When we run our pirate parties, along with giving the traditional party games a pirate theme we use our very successful Pirate Treasure Hunt, which we tailor to the age range of the children. Using the map below we hide wooden letters that spell the world PARTY for the older kids, or just use the pictures hidden around the venue for pre-schoolers. The treasure is always chocolate gold coins in a wooden treasure chest.
Take a look at the range of co-ordinated pirate themed party items in our store and pick the things you like. Then with a bit of craftiness on your part and the help of our free printables below you can run your own Mrs Fox's Pirate Party.

The labels are smaller versions of the thank you card, we cut them out and stick them onto plain craft paper bags (see the image below). You can do this, or punch a hole in the top, thread them with string and tie them onto the handles if you prefer.
You can order Mrs Fox's filled pirate party bags for £4. 50 + p&p each. Mrs Fox’s Pirate Party Bags contain; personalised brown paper craft bag with name tag, felt eye patch, MYO pirate moustache, beard & telescope kit, treasure map, pirate stickers and sweeties, (chocolate coins, sardines & crazy jelly fish)
There is another way:
If you would prefer we can personalise the PDF files with your child’s name and the details of your party and then you can print them out on your printer at home, or take them to a high street printer if you would prefer. We’ll even throw in instructions and the PDF image files you need to create your own Mrs Fox’s Pirate Treasure Hunt & our Piratey Moustache, Beard & Telescope Kit. There is a flat fee of £5 for this and here’s how it works:
- Email us info@mrsfoxs.com and let us know your child’s name and party details.
- We'll send you an invoice. Make your purchase and within 48 hours (but usually sooner) we will email you your Pirate PDF files.
- You are now ready to print your pirate party. They can be printed onto A4 paper or taken to a high street printer and include full and easy instructions.
