Wonder what the subject title means? Well it's Morse Code you'll have to uncode.

Today is the birthday of Samuel Morse. He was born April 27, 1791. Google is celebrating today with a coded header in case you haven't seen it.


Morse code and its development is an intersting topic. A good topic to cover today. How about coding some text for your children to uncode.

And how much do you know about Mr. Morse? Did you know he was very anti-Catholic and a prominent figure in the Nativist (or Know Nothing) Party? Just a heads up but have fun with the code.

Fun, Mary! At first I thought it was diagramming symbols, but it was the wrong forum.

We'll have to try this.

Love it! (the code part, not the anti-Catholic part! ) I'll have to show my kids. Thanks for letting us know, Mary!

Morse Code Conversion (translates words/letters to code for you)
