I've never been the Captain of a whole crew of half-pint Pirates and I was shiverin' in me timbers before the party!! Ahoy mates, the kids all had a blast...but not nearly as much fun as the mom's did, when the kids challenged them to duels!! Your attention to detail minimized my stage fright so that I was able to be a convincing Captain! The kids loved it so much, I am now going to do another party! Thanks! Kathy Byrd, Pineville LA
OVERVIEW: This
is a treasure hunt game that is part Survivor, part Fear
Factor and
part Pirates of the Caribbean. There is a real treasure to
be found at the end of the game by one lucky team .
You can have up to 6 teams and each team must visit 6 "ports" or
locations .
The kids are divided into pirate crews.
The captains choose which famous pirate captain
they want to be Once the team
has selected a captain and the captain has selected a name, the game
can begin.
The object of the game is to visit all 6 ports on their itinerary and complete a pirate themed challenge at each port of call. Some challenges have the team pirates competing against each other for a winner; other challenges have pirate crewscompeting against each other. When the port challenges are done, the host will reveal which pirate crew won the chance to go find the hidden treasure - which they will share with all the other pirate crews of course. The overall winner is NOT based on who finished the challenges first but is based on which team collected a specially marked prize during the Port Challenges
We had a great party. We had 17 kids and the result was "That was the BEST Birthday Party EVER!". Thank you, we will definitely look you up for out next adventure. Sam Fuller, St-Bruno Quebec
NUMBER OF TEAMS/PLAYERS: You can have any number of teams* but try to limit the number of members in each team to 6 or less. It works better with smaller teams as each child has a chance to contribute his or her ideas and talents for the next challenge. *This game will work for one team of children; the only change you'll make is instead of teams competing against each other for a few of the challenges you'll have the kids compete against each other. If you have more than 6 teams you'll have to start doubling up the teams at the 6 locations. It shouldn't be a problem but it may get a bit crowded. You may want to think about setting up duplicate locations (2 sword fighting areas for example) to keep things running smoothly for your large group of kids.
PLEASE NOTE: An adult or teen will need to be at each of the 6 ports to run the game/challenge. We highly recommend you enlist good support if you have a large number of kids.
My child's comment was the best - he said - Mama this is the best birthday party I ever had - that tells you that this was fun - all the other kids also said this was unexpected and so were very happily surprised, kids were giggling throughout the party. Thanks for the lovely experience! - Lys Reddy, Sunnyvale, CA
