The year my daughter turned eight years was a wonderful year for us. He was finally old enough to have sleepovers, and finally came to know other parents enough to build strong relationships in the community. But I'm not sure anyone was prepared for the birthday party to end all birthday parties.
I wanted to do something different, something that had not been done before, I will not say never, but at least in recent times, or at least in our community.
We loved Seattle, and we loved the sea. How could I take advantage of the beautiful city? Then I had it.I sent invitations to all children and parents (my daughter helped, of course), and the day came. I should probably tell you that I used a very distinctive writing style within the invitations.Well, there in the venue - the local park - it was a large, beautifully ugly, dilapidated pirate ship that had been the travel site, but has recently been reduced to a simple part of the park. My daughter and I delivered eye patches, hats and swords, and were on the move!
Before everyone got there, and while my daughter was distracted by mother hid treasure throughout the park, with instructions that treasure maps, the maps also hidden inside the boat pirate, amid friends and some parents. What were they doing? They were inside the ship, in full costume, acting like real pirates.
The children had a blast, and felt as if they were part of something magical, only as in old pirate movies. And parents had a good time to get to know us better, creating even stronger ties. What a day, friend!
