Kids Pirate Bedding

Types of Kids' Pirate Bedding

Just as there are many different versions of pirates, there are several variations in pirate bedding. For preschoolers and young children, pirates represent a funloving, seafaring character. Captain Feathersword of the Wiggles is a popular bedding theme among this age group.

For older kids, pirates represent a wild and exciting life on the open sea. Bedding featuring the Pirates of the Caribbean is a favorite for the school-age and tween set.

Where to Buy Locally

Since pirates are enjoying a resurgence in popularity, kids' pirate bedding is fairly easy to find. Department stores, such as WalMart and Target, frequently stock bedroom accessories in a pirate theme. Specialty bedding stores are likely to have an even larger selection.

Buying Kids Pirate Bedding Online

Kids' pirate bedding is also widely available online. Stores like Overstock.com and Amazon.com frequently stock pirate bedding. Specialty stores selling bedding include:

Disney

Disney sells bedding in the popular Pirates of the Caribbean theme. Sheets, comforters, throws, pillows, and other accessories feature a bandana-wearing skull on a dark background.

Olive Kids

Olive Kids prides itself on selling classic, long-lasting designs. You won't find any character or licensed pirates here. Instead, Olive Kids offers a friendly pirate theme, featuring smiling pirates, treasure chests, and maps, all on a light blue background. Matching sheets, draperies, bedskirt, and shams are also available.

Pittsburgh Pirates Bedding

If you have a sports fan in the house, you might consider Pittsburgh Pirates bedding. The black comforter featured is emblazened with the Pirate logo. A Pittsburgh Pirate pillow and striped sheets complete the look.

Finishing the Set

Most stores selling kids pirate bedding also sell coordinating accessories, but feel free to look outside the bedding aisle for fun and unexpected decorations. You might try thrift stores, antique stores, and even garage sales for nautical and pirate themed decor. Surprisingly, the fishing section of sporting goods stores might also offer inspiration.

Keep your child's age in mind as you choose accessories and decorations. For toddlers and preschoolers, you'll probably want to stick with items bought specifically for that age group for basic safety reasons. Some ideas for older kids' rooms include:

• Anchor
• Ship pictures and models
• Old maps
• Boat steering wheel
• Fishing net
• Sand in bottles
• Box decorated as a treasure chest
• Gold coins
• Bandanas
• Eye patch
• Fish pictures or aquarium
• Skull and crossbones
