Mexican Water Pirate

I am a pre-school teacher now, and sometimes I draw pictures with the kids. Usually I ask them what they want me to draw, pressing them for specific details. So far this is everyone's favorite, the mexican water pirate. They dictated every detail in the following image: his profession, his garb, his moustache.

We ( I) liked it so much that we (I) hung it up on the cabinet door, the class art gallery. This week they decided to draw their own mexican water pirates.

He had a face, but it got colored red.

The brown things coming off the head? Moustache.

Again, had a face, colored it blue.

PIRTE

Those might be birds, but they just as well might be M's.

This one seems to cover the source material the most faithfully.
