Convert a swingset into a pirate ship

Looking for a way to add some pirate flair to your backyard swingset? For less than $11 you can add a Pirate Flag and Flag Pole – then replace the standard tarp roof with some black and white striped fabric. We did this for a Peter Pan themed birthday party, and the kids loved it!
