Send out a yell to all ye parents
and get em cleaning out those those chest unlockers.
Polite filled or blank request slips, ye can of course' demand
a parlay before the crew of mini deck-hand sailors head off back to their
landlubber homes.
Using old keys
With wax crayons
Hide a number of keys under a sheet of paper and see how rubbing the crayon
over the top reveals their position.
With pencils and pend
Trace the outline of keys and create personal designs.
In paint
To lift up the keys when dipped in paint, tie & knot short loops of
string through each.

Pirate
key preschool & nursery numberline
Make a key themed resource for children to role play with,
sort, match, order and sequence.

Making the numberline
Print the key template and cut out as many as needed.
Print the sheet of number discs, cut out and attach to
the centre of each key.
Laminate, trim then hole punch the top and add a loop
of string to hang.
Print the hook template and cut away the grey area. Allow
5cm from the long side of the paper and place the templat along
the length. Trace and cut out, laminate, trim then fold up the points
to form two bends and a tip that will hold the key strings.
Glue the hooks to a backing sheet for wall display in
a role play area.
