Pirates have been a huge interest for Pipiri ever since reading this

Dr. Dolittle and the Pirates vintage book.
The Easter bunny brought her this beautiful this
wooden cutlass and this
hat. So she has basically been a pirate for the past 6 months. Thus a Pirate unit was needed. Her favorite is Blackbeard! The notoriously famous pirate. And because she doesn't watch any TV or movies...her imaginary play is based off of her book reading only. She has an amazing imagination!!

Daddy and Pip love to draw together. They studied several pirates together and then drew one.
These are some of the funny things she wants Captain Hook aka daddy to "give up"...like lent....
This is a little boat her and daddy made out of this
beeswax.

We read through these books together...now let me tell you moms and dads use CAUTION with some of them...there is some violence involved. So instead of skipping the entire book, I read them myself and then told her about them.

We use this
type of journal/notebook as our Main Lesson books (this is a Waldorf way of learning...making our own text books). She tells me everything she can remember without searching thru books...she uses just her memory. We do these after reading our books several times thru.

We made this "hook" out of a doll hanger and some tin foil.
We also made this Treasure Map using these
and these
. I love this
sharpen for all of our colored pencils - its the best! Crumpled up brown paper....then used this
globe to locate all of the places Blackbeard traveled and robbed other ships (purposefully misspelling things and locations)...Then drew different pirate signs on the map. Great geography lesson!
