Create an adventure through Never Land centered around a search for Hooks Treasure. Kids will progress through different areas of Never LandThe Nursery, Crocodile Creek, Pirates Cove, Mermaid Lagoon, Indian Camp, Skull Rock and the treasure, Finally to go to Pixie Hollow were all the fairies can relax.
When kids arrive they were greeted by Wendy (birthday girl) and taken to the Nursery (birthday girls bedroom) . Peter Pan CD will be playing kids can make tissue flowers for Fairy tea later and color Peter Pan pictures until all the guests arrive. Once everyone arrives Wendy the birthday girl says.
WENDYChildren, Father said this is our last night in the nursery. Tomorrow we have to grow up. Lets fly to Never Land and find Hooks treasure!
At this, Hook (birthday girls dad appears) and says
HookBut only if ye can find me Treasure. Ill give you the first clue!
(Birthday girl changes from Wendy into Tinkerbell costume.)
Hook--Off to Never Land, just follow the pixie-Through the green but watch out it gets tricky. Along the creek, walk single file. Sit where you like, and watch for the crocodile!
This will take the kids to Crocodile creek . Where the crocodile song will be playing on the CD player and the kids will make a crocodile clothespin. Paint clothes pins green. Use googly eyes and pre-cut squiggly strips (using craft sissors) of white teeth so the kids can glue them on. Use old realtor magnics and pizza magnets cut them up and attach to clothespins so kids can hang them on their refridgerators. Put on paper plates with each kids name to dry.
Hook appears again to say
HookAvast ye, mateys, ye made a fine croc. But theres more danger in store that doesnt tick-tock. Head for the sea, thats a good tip Youll find your next clue on a pirate ship.
The kids will then move to Pirates Cove: Here we will have 2 pirate ships set for battle each made out of big boxes. (tip use a 3rd box to make points on the front and back of the ships more realistic) Can get Pirate flag from internet or make one out of poster board from the dollar store) Only allow 2 kids on each ship at a time, Kids will have to throw black balloon cannon balls at each ship, can also use black small whiffle balls or stryofom balls. Each team as 1 minute to try to sink the other pirate ship. The team that got the most cannon balls in the other ship wins. Losing team gets told they have to swab the deck. Game continues until all children have had a chance. Use the Pirates of the Caribbean ship battle song on this one. At the end of the game Hook will appear again and say
HookPoor boys and girls, some of you got sunk. Your ship no longer sails and now its just junk. So swim out to the lagoon and youll get your three swishesA chance to bring home one of those girl fishes.
Mermaid LagoonOut to the kiddie pool. Floating in the pool are dollar store mermaids of various colors. Kids line up and get three chances with a fishing net to catch a mermaid that they can keep. If they didnt catch it in three chances they have to go to the end of the line and try again. CD song from Peter Pan Mermaid Lagoon should be playing. Hook then reappears.
HookBlast you, yer getting closer, but you havent found me gold yet.. Its time to go wild and see what you get. Follow the leader, and take steps to the right of theeyoull capture your next clue in the home of sweet Tiger Lily.
Indian CampCD plays music from Peter Pan Indian camp song. Tee Pee is set up, totem/tiki décor. Kids get to go into the tee pee and get their faces painted and get tattoos. Hook reappears and says.
HookSo you made it this far, but dont brag or talkNo one has ever made it to the last stop Skull Rock. Up the ships deck and along the deck crickety-crank to get old Hooks treasure youll have to walk the plank!
Skull Rock-inflatable pool filled with water and a rubber croc. 8ft plank on paint cans over pool. Kids have to walk this plank in order to get to the treasure. Get black balloon filled with water, sand or bird seed. Have the kids walk the plank with a cannon ball on their head. On Skull Rock put pirate skeleton holding treasure box filled with candy and treasures. Burlap bags tied each treasure so kids dont fight over who gets what. Hook then appears and says:
HookArrgh, ye found it, yer better priates than me own. Youve taken my treasure and now leave me alone! If its real riches yer after, head over to Tinks place. Cuz better than silver n gold is Nicoles ice cream and birthday cake

Games
Pass the present---Game is played to the music of Im a little tea pot Directions: Wrap smaller box with a surprise inside such as rings and place that inside larger wrapped box. Do this about 4 or 5 box sizes. Sit girls in circle play music every time they hear teapot they have to change the direction in which the present is being passed or if stopped the present to be opened.
Tea RelayDivide guests into 2 teams and relay tea (water) in mini cups from one side of the yard to the other. They have to balance the mini cup on a mini saucer & try not to spill. The team with the most tea in their tea pot at the end wins.

Flower Pot TossLarge flower pots set up with single flower in each (stuck into a piece of styrofoam) or turn the flower pot upside down and pot flower in hole. Give girls rings made out of flowers to throw and try to ring the big flower.
Bug Bag TossLarge flower pots about 5 set up and girls given bean bags in the shapes of bugs to throw in the pots.
Musical Flowers-- a version of musical chairs, but instead of chairs Make sunflowers out of construction paper and make one picture of a bug out of construction paper. Place these pictures in a circle and each child has to stand on a picture and when the music stops the child that was caught standing on the bug is out. When each child was out we would then remove a sunflower from the circle (instead of a chair). Until only one child was left standing on a sunflower
Fairy Queen saysPlayed like Simon says .
Fairy Fairy PixiePlayed like Duck Duck Goose
I Believe in FairiesOne player is deemed Tinker Bell and given a magic wand, and the others all run off. When kids are tagged with the wand, they had to go to a waiting area.

For the drink, 1 pack (.13 oz) unsweetened drink mix (any flavor and a bright color - red, blue, purple) lemon-lime flavored carbonated soda - chilled. Mix the pack of drink mix with 1 1/2 cups water. Pour into an ice cube tray and freeze solid. To serve, pour the soda into clear glasses. Put 1-2 flavored ice cubes into each glass.
