Pirate activities

I’m so pleased to finally release this incredible preschool resource pack, it is based on the theme of pirates! I have photographed as many of the printables as possible, however not everything is displayed. What I have shown will hopefully inspire you to create the perfect pirate themed lessons. This topic is perfect for little learners!

I have included magnet activities. These could also be used with paint dabbers or fingerprinting! They are great for perfecting hand-eye coordination whilst practicing initial letter sounds. 

Carrying on with literacy themed printables, there is a ‘P is for pirate cut’ and stick sheet, alphabetical tracers and a colour sheet to perfect colouring skills. 

I’ve also included a visual discrimination activity to help with early reading skills. 

Pirate themed math activities have also been provided. Peg cards and counting mats are the perfect way to improve counting skills. 

Continuing with counting, a treasure counting mat and pirate themed number posters are also included. You could use chocolate coins with the counting mat!

Shadow matching cards and shape pairs will also help with visual discrimination. I’ve added a lacing card to help with pincer grip!

A playdough mat and cutting activity also help provide extra fine motor development! 


As mentioned at the start, not all items are shown. There is so much more included that would benefit a pirate preschool theme. If you would like a copy of the Pirate Activities Pack then download your copy below!
