Pirate Lady’s Costume- Love this costume from Sarah Forshaw! It’s perfect for all us adults out there, just totally adulting the pirate thang.

Pirate Bandanna Skirt- For anyone with little pirate granddaughters, you will love this bandanna skirt by Alpha Mom! (I wonder how I can make it in my size?…)

Spyglass Crispy Cones- I adore these cones from Party City! They’re almost too pretty to eat! Almost…

Jell-O Fish Bowls- If Jell-O had been around when pirates ruled the seas, I’m sure they would’ve eaten it all the time. Check out this pirate take on Jell-O from Theresa’s Mixed Nuts!

Gold Doubloon Oreos- These doubloons from Purple Chocolate Home make my mouth water. If I ever found a real gold doubloon, I would probably just use it to buy Oreos anyway.

Goodnight Pirate– After a long pirate adventure, this book will be just the thing to settle your little ones down for the night.

Pirate Pete– Ok, not gonna lie. Sometimes, reading children’s books can be a little… slow. Not this one though! You and your grandchild will both love this story and probably read on repeat.
