The Wind Up Pirate Ship book is SO much fun!
There is so much interaction with this book that it’s nearly impossible not to entice kids to want to read it. It’s a fun story about pirates looking for – you guessed it – treasure, but in between the pages of the story are 3 tracks that allow a wind-up toy shaped like the pirate ship in the book to zoom around the locations discussed in the story.
I mean, we love pirates in my home, so getting this book was a pretty much a given. But I was still surprised by how much my girls enjoyed reading it and playing with it. In fact, on Christmas day, my 4yo announced that this was the “greatest gift ever.”
Then the very next day, she announced {even tho she’d never seen it until the day before} that it was “the BEST gift that she’s ALWAYS wanted!”
Now, four-year-olds can be a little dramatic, but you gotta love that kind of enthusiasm about books.
I was pretty excited about it, too. Which I hope shows in the video review I did for the book:
And like I mentioned in the video, there are a ton of wind-up and pull-back books in the same series as the Wind-Up Pirate Ship. They include:
Wind-Up Tractor
Wind-Up Train
Wind-Up Plane
Wind-Up Race Cars
Wind-Up Bus (London)
Pull-Back Busy Bug
Pull-Back Busy Car
Pull-Back Busy Train
Pull-Back Busy Helicopter
Pull-Back Busy Santa
But did you arrive here because you were excited about the pirates?
Don’t worry: we’ve got a ton of pirate books, too!
