World Maritime Day, celebrated on September 29th, is a special day to think about ships and the people who work on them. It helps us remember how important ships are for bringing food, clothes, and many other things from one country to another. This day also reminds us to care for the sea and keep it clean. People talk about making ships safer and protecting the ocean life. It's like a big thank you to the sea and all the sailors who spend a lot of time away from their families to help the world stay connected.

How to celebrate World Maritime Day?

On World Maritime Day, start by making a paper boat and float it in a tub or a small pool. Then, watch an exciting movie about ships or the ocean with friends or family. Have a picnic and pretend you're on a ship by eating snacks like fish-shaped crackers. Draw or color pictures of ships and sea creatures. Read a fun story about pirates or underwater adventures. Play treasure hunt by hiding small prizes around the house. You can also learn a sea shanty song and sing it with friends. Finally, dream about places you would like to visit by boat someday.
