I have to admit that my youngest surprised me this year when choosing the theme for her fourth birthday party. I was fully expecting to be planning a Doc McStuffins (can we say obsessed? ;) ) or maybe a Sophia the First princess tea party, but nope! I let her loose in the children's party aisle at our local party supplies store, and she ended up going in an entirely different direction- she asked for a Jake and the Neverland Pirates birthday party! :) Pirates? Okay! That is a party theme that I can totally get behind.

Planning this party was so much fun, and I couldn't believe how many awesome ideas there are out there for children's pirate themed parties! :) So let's get into the party details, shall we?

If you happen to have a kiddo in your house (or even a grandchild or niece or nephew) under the age of five, then you probably already know all about Disney Junior, am I right? I have to admit that Little Miss has more or less grown up watching it. Not in the sense that I have just plopped her down in front of the television since birth & let Mickey, Sophia, Doc, & Jake raise her for me. But most days we just leave it on Disney Junior as we go about our day whether we are actually watching it or not. In fact, I oftentimes forget that it is still on hours after I have dropped my little one off at preschool for the morning. (Now I know I am not the only parent who has done this. ;) )

One of her favorite shows on Disney Junior has always been Jake and the Neverland Pirates. For those of you not familiar with the show, Jake & his band of pint sized pirates (aka, Cubby & Izzy) spend their days in Neverland committing good deeds, collecting gold doubloons for their team treasure chest (which they earn from the aforementioned good deeds & for completing challenges), and foiling the sneaky plans of Captain Hook and his band of bungling pirates. And yes, every once in a while Peter Pan himself and Tinkerbell make an appearance. This Oh Coconuts! Dip was created in honor of Cubby. Cubby is one part of the lovable pirate trio who is the keeper of the map of Neverland, has an affinity for collecting coconuts, and at times can be a little clumsy which results in him exclaiming, "Oh coconuts!" quite often during the show... :)
