My older son's 5th birthday is coming up with a Pirate theme. I am having a hard time finding pirate coloring pages that look decent.

The party is not specific to Captain Hook but a coloring page of him would be great.

I am also looking for a pirate ship and a pirate flag.

Any ideas?

I'm sure there is a great website out there with all of this but I can't seem to find it!

I used the first link this past December for my DS Stitch birthday party. DS and DD colored the pictures before the party and we used them as part of the decorations since Stitch(only) party stuff is hard to find.

OOohhhhh I LOVE birthday party planning.

When I was a kid I had a pirate party one year and my mom made all these cool treasure maps for each kid with clues and things to find the hidden treasure (which was the cake) she dipped the paper in tea and then let it dry so it would look old and then burnt the edges of the papers so they had blackened sides. They were so awesome, I still have mine in an album somewhere.

Here is a link with some Peter Pan coloring sheets to print out.

I wish there was more of a money making market for being a party planner, I'd love doing that.
PM me if you want any help with it or anything.

You could check out some of the archives at the Disney Insider site. They always have cool stuff for kids!

Going from tessa's pireate party, I would like to share how I did my DD's if you don't mind. I used brown postal wrap to make treasure maps and numbered them. Each child had a different map and they lead to their party favor made into a treasure box. I used shoe boxes for them. I numbered the maps and the boxes and had each child choose a number from a hat. The maps were silly and very easy. Like walk ten paces to the left while quacking like a duck...it was cute and the girls had a good time with it. Everyone did their alone, while the group watched on. It took over an hour and was scheduled entertainment where the kids weren't running all over the place...worked out great.

For my DS's 3rd Birthday we had a pirate party. Here are a few ideas that I haven't seen mentioned here. I made a cake that looked like a pirate chest and on top of it I placed candy necklaces, ring pops, gold foil chocolate coins and other candy. I also made the invitations using "Pirate Jargon". I also gave all of the kids a pirate hat and earring to wear during the party. For the favor bags I found rubber duckies w/ pirate "clothes" on at Oriental Trading Company - the have a website with LOTS of cute pirate stuff.
