Pirate Playtime

We ended up with a great impromptu pirate playtime this morning.  A quick eye patch was made and a sword cut out of a paper towel roll.  There was a small bag of pixy dust and a treasure chest (old recipe box) filled with treasure (car wash coins, washers, pennies, empty key chain, etc).  There was even a secret hideout with a magic tunnel entrance, guarded by a burly (or was it curly) first mate (the dog).  Of course I fed my little pirate GOLDfish crackers at snack time.  Later Dad (the Tool Pirate?) came upstairs and raided the hideout, stealing and then hiding the treasure.  The brave pirate set out at once to search for and recover his treasure. So much fun!
