Talk Like a Pirate Day
Well folks, it’s that time of year again for International Talk Like a Pirate Day. If you’re in that scalliwag kind of mood for talking AND singing like a pirate, click here for our sea-worthy Peg Leg Song.

And maybe you feel like doing a pirate craft or school project? Check out these photos from elementary schools who have used pirates (and our book A Pirate’s Quest) as the inspiration for reading and writing. I am always amazed by what teachers and students can accomplish. I have even seen Principals dressed in pirate gear reading the morning announcements in their own pirate voice. If you ask me, that’s a good way to start school in the morning.
