Free Printable Pirates, Boats, Ships Coloring, 3D Crafts

 If your children ask to wear a peg leg and carry a bottle of rum to school, don't be alarmed. Today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. It was started in 1995 by Mark "Cap'n Slappy" Summers and John "Ol' Chumbucket" Baur. Schools and many businesses get in on the fun. You can, too. Here are free printable pirate coloring pages, crafts, games and toys. Side-stepping the less savory aspects of pirate lore, I've included navigation, maritime and marine lesson plans, too. That way teachers and home-school parents can indulge their inner pirate and call it educational. I've linked to printable ship and boat models, boat coloring pages, Disney "Pirates of the Caribbean," Disney boat crafts and more. Free Printable Pirates, Boats, Shipping and Maritime Coloring Page and Activities
