The Blue Pearl

I made this boat.  It is called the "The England Borrower Blue Pearl".  It is inspired by "The Black Pearl".  Jack Sparrow stands on the platform next to the pirate flag.

My Maersk Party

I had a Maersk themed birthday party.  My mom planned fun games to help us learn about container ships.  She also made a phone call and the Maersk company sent 3 packages full of stuff!  There were hats, t-shirts, lanyards, tennis balls, notebooks, pens, back-scratchers,  clip magnets, squishy boats, a tin of cookies, 2 cool table flags, 4 posters, a calendar, and a ruler.   My mom used the squishy boats to help her make the cake.

Building our cargo ships

Testing the cargo capacity of my ship

There was a storm at sea and my ship lost it's cargo

One of the things we did was build ships with aluminum foil.  Then we used Jenga blocks as containers and marbles for more weight.  We tested to see whose boat could carry the most cargo.  My sisters was the best.  It held 4.0 lbs of cargo.

I love my cake!

It was a great party!  We all had a lot of fun.  

It helped the other kids learn about Maersk.   

Thank you, Fran and all the people at Maersk 

who helped make this the best birthday ever!
