Build a silly pirate face from a paper plate with this printable craft for preschool, pre-K, kindergarten, and first grade. Kids trace and cut a pirate hat from the template, add a red band and skull and bones, then glue on painted cardboard eyes and a mustache.
Every step has a real photo, and a supply list with picture cues shows what to gather first, so kids can work through it on their own. A list of pirate picture books at the back of the pack makes it easy to pair with a read-aloud.
A natural fit for pirate units, Talk Like a Pirate Day, and art centers.
