Sep
World Maritime Day is a special day celebrated on the last Thursday of September, which often falls around September 30. It is like a birthday party for ships and the people who work on them. On this day, we remember how important ships are for carrying things all over the world, like toys, food, and clothes. It's also a time to think about keeping the ocean clean and safe for everyone. People celebrate by learning about ships, the ocean, and how we can help protect both. It's a fun way to appreciate the big blue ocean and everything in it!
How to celebrate World Maritime Day?
Start the day by drawing or painting pictures of ships, oceans, and sea creatures. Watch fun videos or read stories about pirates and sailors. Make a small boat using paper and float it in water to see how it sails. If you can, visit a beach or a harbor to explore and watch real boats. Play ocean-themed games or puzzles with friends and family. Have a picnic with fish-shaped snacks or seafood at home. In the evening, gather everyone to share what you've learned about ships and sailors. Finish by watching a movie about adventures at sea.
