Story About A Message In A Bottle

[Guest]

I want to have some bottles in the water tray and paper etc for the children to write messages

 

Does anyone know of a story that includes messages in bottles or have any ideas how to introduce this to the class?

 

I was thinking about putting a bottle in the water for the children to discover then read the message from a mermaid or pirate and the children could write back

 

Does this sound ok?

Sounds great to me!

 

If from a pirate could it also include a map - x marks the spot sort of thing?

I'm fairly sure this has a message in a bottle but I'm not too sure if it is an intergral part of the story! Will try to have a look tomorrow.
