Pirate Photo ID Cards for Kids Who Dream of Treasure, Tall Ships and Adventure

Some kids dream of being astronauts. Others see themselves as explorers. But for many, the ultimate dream is to be a pirate. The idea of sailing the high seas, searching for treasure, and shouting “Ahoy!” from the crow’s nest has captured imaginations for generations. That’s why our Pirate In Training Photo ID Card is such a hit with young buccaneers.

From the first time they hear tales of buried gold and secret treasure maps, plenty of kids decide that a pirate’s life is for them. Our card gives them something they can carry around with pride, whether they’re role-playing at home, heading to a fancy dress party, or just want to feel part of the crew.

Why Our Pirate In Training ID Card Makes the Perfect Crew Member Badge

Our card is designed for any young scallywag who wants to show off their official pirate credentials. It includes their name, photo, and their Pirate In Training status. Every detail has been thought through—from the wording to the design—so that kids feel like they’re part of a real pirate crew.

The card is the same size as a bank card (86mm x 54mm), making it easy for small hands to carry. It’s made from biodegradable plastic, which means it’s strong enough to survive even the roughest storm or pretend swordfight on deck, but also kinder to the planet than traditional plastic. The design is single-sided, perfect for showing off without flipping it over like a map in the wind.

There’s something exciting about having your own photo on an ID card. For kids, it feels grown-up and official. Add in a pirate theme and it’s even better. Our card lets children feel like they’ve joined their own pirate crew. It might even be Captain Redbeard himself handing out the ranks—who knows?

From vintage font and Skull and Cross Bone, every part of the design has a seaworthy look. Kids can use it during playtime with friends, wear it around their neck on a lanyard, or stash it in their toy treasure chest next to their gold coins and eye patch.

If you’ve ever seen a child play pirates, you’ll know it involves more than just a hat and a “Yarr!” There’s map drawing, storytelling, cannonball-dodging, and plank-walking. Our card gives that little bit extra—something they can flash when boarding their cardboard ship or arriving at a pirate-themed birthday party.

It helps them get into character and gives their role-play more structure. They’re not just pretending to be a pirate—they’re a Pirate In Training, with an official photo ID to prove it. It’s the kind of thing that turns an ordinary afternoon into an adventure on the open sea.
