Pirate Maps and Adventure

Notice: This article is kept for historical reference. Some details may be outdated.

Ahoy there! Here’s the fourth lesson in our pirate series.

Time to read a treasure map and find the treasure!  Hide some “treasure” (Schatz) in your child’s bedroom, or the living room or kitchen.  Make a map of the room or house (in PEN) and mark an X where the treasure is (in PENCIL).  Give your child the map and explain how maps work.  Let your pirate find the treasure.  Your child will no doubt want to do this repeatedly or hide treasure for you to find, hence the PENCIL mark which can be erased and put somewhere else on the page. Click here for a fun treasure map template.

Here’s another pirate adventure to go on:  Download and read out the Bewegungsgeschichte fuer Piraten and act it out together as per the instructions.
