Silly Pirate Song by Jack Hartmann is an educational song for kids that covers sequencing, following a growing pattern, comprehension and story recall. All these skills are very important developmental skills for young children.
This pirate song for kids continues to be one of my most popular original songs. Children really use their imaginations as they act out each character's part. There are movements and lots of repetition to build brain and body connections.
Teachers and Parents can extend the learning after the video by asking these questions.
Who is your favorite character?
Can you tell me what order the characters appear in?
How many characters did you see?
What is the setting of the story?
The simple rhythm and great melody of Silly Pirate Song continues to make this pirate song for kids a favorite of children around the world.

LYRICS:
Once there was a pirate who sang a pirate song
Then interrupting the pirate, a surfer came along
