Do your children want to dress up in pirate costumes? Of course they do. All children love to dress up as pirates, or fantasy characters, be it boys or girls. Dressing up as a pirate is a part of growing up. Kids love pirate stories, they love Captain Hook stories and they love to pretend they are walking the plank. They love to shout out ‘Ahoy’ there and brandish swords. They like to wear eye patches and bandanas around their heads, or necks, and they love to play pretend games. It’s quite easy to make a pirate costume and it is also easy to buy a pirate costume online.
Dress up accessories
Almost everyone has dress up accessories at home but costume stores online also keep dress up accessories. If you have a few coloured bandanas at home, a couple of coloured wigs, a few pairs of sunglasses, a cape or two, perhaps a sword although some parents are opposed to them and an eye patch are always good ideas. Throw in a crown or two, accessories, different hats, and you can quickly make up any fancy dress costume you please. Remember, kids have vivid imaginations and don't need much to get dressed up as a fantasy character at all. They can be a pirate on Monday, a Prince on Tuesday, a Superhero on Wednesday, a clown on Thursday and a fairy on Friday. They only need a few items of fun clothing and a good sense of play and adventure.
Encourage your children to dress up. Help them to make costumes and to come up with fancy dress costume ideas. Think of book characters, cartoon characters and movie characters. Remember, if you cannot make the costume, you can easily buy the fancy dress costume online. Pirate costumes are always a huge hit and are not tricky to make or expensive to buy.
