Host lines (opening)
Tom (in captain's hat): "Ahoy, crew! I'm Captain Redbeard, and this morning a seagull dropped this on our deck." (holds up a torn map) "Half a map! Legend says the other half is hidden right here, guarded by riddles only real pirates can solve. Are you real pirates?" (kids shout "Aye!") "I can't hear you over the waves!" (louder "AYE!") "Then earn your gold. Three trials, one treasure. Crews, to your ships!"
Games and contests
Cannonball relay (20 min)
Each crew carries water balloons on a big spoon to their "ship" (a hula hoop) 10 metres away. A dropped "cannonball" goes back to the start. The crew with the most balloons in 3 minutes wins a map piece. Rain option: use ping-pong balls indoors.
Knots & riddles (20 min)
Two tasks per crew: tie a simple knot from a picture card, and solve 3 riddles. Example: "I have a bed but never sleep, a mouth but never eat. What am I?" (A river.)
Treasure hunt (35 min)
Five clues in rhyme lead around the yard. Clue 1: "Where green things grow and the hose sleeps tight, look under the pot that's painted white." The last clue leads to a chest with gold coin bags for everyone — no crew loses.
Props list
- 16 bandanas, name tags, captain's hat
- Torn map in 4 pieces, 5 rhyme clue cards
- 4 hula hoops, 4 large spoons, 40 water balloons
- Small chest, 16 bags of chocolate coins
Backup ideas
- If a game ends early: "Captain says" (pirate version of Simon says)
- If kids get tired: quiet "message in a bottle" drawing at the table

About this service
When a family is grieving, putting together a funeral or memorial is one more heavy task, and it often falls to someone who has never done it. We help gently: a clear order of service from the welcome to the closing words, suggestions for readings, poems and music, introductions for each speaker and, if you wish, a draft tribute built from the memories you share. It can follow a religious tradition or be fully secular, and it can be printed for guests or read by the celebrant.
What is included
- What you getAn order of service with timing, the words of the person leading it, speaker introductions, suggested readings and music, a short text for a printed program and, from Standard, a draft tribute, as formatted text on the order page.
- Order of serviceEach part with timing
- Leader's wordsWelcome, transitions and closing
- Readings and musicSuggestions that fit the person
- Tribute draftFrom Standard, from the memories you share

How it works
- 1BriefYou share what you are ready to share
- 2WritingWe write the order and words with care
- 3ReviewYou adjust anything before the day
What we need from you
The name of the person and a few things about their life, the tradition or the wish for a secular service, who will speak, music or readings that matter to the family, the place and the length.
We will ask you:
- What was the person's name, and what would you like guests to remember about them?
- Should the service be religious or secular?
- Who will lead it, and who else will speak?
- Are there songs, poems or readings the family wants?

Questions and answers
Can this work for a celebration of life rather than a funeral?
Yes. Many families now choose a lighter gathering with stories, music and photos, and we write the order to match.
Does it follow religious rites?
We follow the structure you describe and leave the rites themselves to your priest, rabbi, imam or celebrant, who will know the exact form.
How quickly can we have it?
Basic is ready in one day. If the service is very soon, say so in the brief.
