I’ve always dreamed of being a sailor. Whether I’m tying knots or steering an imaginary ship in Bubble Buddies Bay, I just know the ocean is full of amazing things to explore. So grab your sailor hat and come with me, I’ll show you what it really takes to be a seafarer! 

Respect the Mighty Sea

The ocean is awesome, but it’s no bathtub! One moment it’s calm, the next it’s splashing like a wild dolphin. A good sailor listens to the sea and knows when to chill, and when to grab a life vest!

Be a Captain

Every sailor is the captain of their own little ship (even if it is just a paper boat in the bathtub). They need to be responsible and disciplined. Being a captain means being responsible, following the rules, and taking care of your vessel and your crew (even if your crew is a rubber duck).

Be a Flexible Friend
Waves change and winds turn. A great sailor stays cool, changes course, and fixes what needs fixing, just clever thinking!

Imagine the Adventure
Close your eyes… can you see it? A glowing island, a treasure under a coconut tree, dolphins leaping beside your ship? A great sailor uses their imagination and their instincts to dream big and sail smart.

Learn from Mistakes
Even the best captains get their socks wet. That’s okay! Real sailors say, “WHOOPS! Let’s try again!” and figure out what went wrong. Every mistake is just one more wave closer to greatness.

Protect our Ocean
The sea is home to turtles, seahorses, octopuses, even teeny-tiny plankton! Good sailors love the ocean and keep it clean for everyone who lives there.

So, do you have what it takes to be a Bubble Buddy Sailor?

• Be brave and kind.
  
• Learn from your waves.
  
• And always protect our ocean home..

Here are some ideas for you!

🏴‍☠ Build a Paper Boat: Fold a piece of paper into a boat and race it in a tub of water. You can even decorate it with flags and sails and give it a name!
🏴‍☠ Draw a Sea Adventure: Draw a picture of yourself sailing a boat, exploring islands, or battling a storm. Don't forget the treasure!
🏴‍☠ Learn Knot-Tying: Use rope or shoelaces to practice sailor’s knots, like the square knot or bowline. Ask a grown-up to show you; it’s fun!
🏴‍☠ Read a Pirate or Sea Adventure Book: Read a classic pirate story or a modern adventure tale set on the sea.
🏴‍☠ Create a Treasure Map: Draw a treasure map with clues leading to a hidden treasure, like a toy or a candy.

Don’t be a stranger, splash by again soon!
