Pirate Birthday Card Ideas
Pirate cards come loaded with treasure maps, ships, a squawking parrot, and a friendly cartoon crew. They're perfect for a swashbuckling party or any kid who answers to 'Captain'.
The set includes a treasure map, a pirate boy and pirate girl with eyepatches, a ship full of kid pirates, a Jolly Roger flag, a bold pirate captain, a treasure chest on a desert island, and a parrot in a pirate hat — plus a coloring page of a little pirate at sea.
