Henry LOVES pirates. So when we got the July preschool calendar and saw that there was a pirate day, we (mostly me) was so excited to prepare for the big day.
Our kids have just recently started watching TV the last few months, not because we haven't let them, they just have not been interested and would rather play in our playroom. So when I discovered the show Jake and the Neverland Pirates, I knew Henry would be in love. At Target the other day, I couldn't pass up the little Jake pirate doll. So for pirate day, we made an outfit from stuff we found around the house and tried to make Henry look like Jake.
Time got away from us, and we were scrambling at the last minute to get his outfit together. So we cut the sleeves on a white undershirt and colored an 'X' on it, cut a red onesie to make his headband, and pulled out his black vest from Danielle's wedding. He also got to bring his sword. He loved the outfit and was so excited to tell his teachers all about it.
Our Pirate Henry.
The actual Jake the Pirate:
What an easy project at home that made Henry so happy and excited to show off to his friends. And not too bad for mommy at 7am on a Monday morning.
