Magnetars are the most strongly magnetized subclass of pulsars. Observed magnetar activities, such as glitches and bursts, have not yet been systematically explained. Inspired by the dynamo theory, in this letter, we suggest a uniform picture for illustrating these observations. We speculate that the perturbation of velocity fields in these magnetars due to glitches acts as the springhead for glitch-associated activities. We argue that comparing the spark frequencies of pulsed radio pulses before and after glitches may examine the imaginary picture.
