I love the stuff on Imagine Our Life's site, especially the quiet book pages. The Treasure Quiet Book Page was the inspiration for my own pirate themed quiet book pages.

| Arr! It's quiet book pages fit for a pirate! |
I used felt, ribbon, velcro, fabric batting, and glitter foam to make these pages.
The treasure map is tied using a ribbon, a skill still difficult for J to do, but when open it reveals a treasure map. The details on the treasure map were hot glued on, while the trail is sewn. Below the map is part of the beach where the treasure is buried.

Why We Love These Pages
These pages provide lots of great imaginative play. They also provide an opportunity to practice important skills like tying a bow and learning that keys are used to open locks. The boys especially love playing with the treasure.
