Have a *great* (times three) time.
With stories that might be a little boring, even ones they've heard
many times, children can get REALLY interested in them (even if they
didn't want to) if you involve them in a physical way with the story.
The kids can act out some of the parts. In ocean voyages, they can sway
with the swells, even if you have to grab them by the shoulders and
move them. If you make the stories physically real to then, they can't
help being involved. This technique even works with music.
I'm not guessing here. :-)
Oh, yes, thanks for the history. I had already told Chopped Hair about
it because he was interested. OK, I made him interested. :-)
When I told him about ALL the duties of cabin boys (after the monkeys),
he had an urge to join the Navy. He was disappointed when I told him it
wasn't like that any more.
Oh well, things don't always change for the better.
