Printable party game
Captain Barnacle's Birthday Treasure
A printable pirate escape room and treasure hunt for kids ages 6 to 12
Captain Barnacle hid a birthday treasure for your Birthday Captain, but Squawk, the ship's sneaky parrot, scrambled the map into 9 puzzles and locked the chest. Your pirate crew follows a trail of hidden envelopes, and every answer reveals where the next one is hiding.
Print it at home and it's ready for the party. The locks are paper compass wheels, so there's nothing else to buy. It isn't tied to a holiday, so it works for birthdays, sleepovers, summer camp and classroom reward days all year.
