On the command (from the list below) the children have to do the appropriate action. After a while, start removing the last player to comply, until only one remains.
- Port (run to one side to the area)
- Starboard (run to the other side)
- Captains Coming Aboard (Stand to attention and Salute)
- Submarines (lie on the floor)
- Hoist the Mainsail (run on the spot - like climbing the rigging)
- Mess Deck (Sit cross legged on the floor - ready for lunch)
- Davey Jones (Climb a tree, stand on a chair - anything so that you are not on the floor)
- Up Periscope (Stand up straight and old hands to eyes as though looking through binoculars)
