Pirate Heroes
Historically, pirates generally were NOT heroes, but in popular fiction, Pirates are often portrayed as folk heroes.
I like this YouTube video using clips from Pirates of the Caribbean with Jennifer Saunders "Holding Out For A Hero" as music.

Pirate for Halloween?
Will you be a pirate for Halloween? Or, will you dress your child up as a pirate? What will be your props? How will you dress?
When I was a kid, I was a pirate and wore my mother's earrings and a billowy skirt. When I dressed my son as a pirate, he wore a sailor's coat (actually a blue jacket with white epaulet stripes I picked up at a second hand store) with a toy parrot sewed on the shoulder. I also fashioned a fake hook out of a plastic hanger and black construction paper. He had his Disney pirate hat, so he was set with a bit of makeup showing fake scars on his face.
